The Tower of London Remembers: VE Day 80 & Poppies by Coach

Join us at the iconic Tower of London for a spectacular commemorative display where nearly 30,000 ceramic poppies engulf the Tower grounds in a flood of red to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day. With many of the poppies returning from the original 2014 installation, this new display serves as a visual representation of the sacrifice made by so many, but also as a symbol of strength and resilience against overwhelming odds. With entrance to the Tower of London included as well as free time in the city to explore as you please, don't miss this historic occasion at the heart of the nation's capital.

Itinerary

Day 1 - London at Leisure

From a morning pick-up in your local area, we travel by coach to our hotel in London. The rest of the day is free to spend at leisure in the city. From plenty of shopping opportunities on Oxford Street and in Covent Garden to discovering the city’s iconic sights, there’s lots to do. A trip to central London is easy, with our hotel conveniently located a 5-minute walk away from Canary Wharf underground.

Day 2 - Tower of London

After breakfast, we check out of the hotel and make our way back into central London for the spectacular poppy display at the iconic Tower of London. Our visit also includes admission into the ancient fortress itself, so there’s plenty to see here. We then enjoy free time until the afternoon, when we rejoin the coach and head for home.
