A trip that spans the generations is the hardest to plan and the most rewarding to get right. London makes it easier than most, with plenty that works for everyone at once. Part of our London for every traveller series.
Something for the children
Animals and dinosaurs rarely fail. London Zoo, the Sea Life aquarium and the Natural History Museum are sure things, with more in our family guide and museums for kids.
Something for the teenagers
Give the older ones room to roam with big views and street food, as our guide to London with teenagers sets out.
Something for the grandparents
Build in slower mornings at Kew Gardens or the museums, as our gentler pace guide suggests.
Staying together
A roomy base in the right spot keeps the peace. See our best areas to stay guide, and plan the rest with our trip planning guide.
