Have you planned your summer trip this year? If you haven’t, visiting London will be a great preference.

It is inarguably true that London has everything you can include in your travel itinerary – from the awesome spots to take some artsy pictures for the sake of your Instagram feed to the excitement of going around the city with the iconic Double Decker Bus. But it might sound boring, somehow, if you only spend your one week in London with an ordinary list of activities like sightseeing, taking pictures, or enjoying local cuisines. For you are visiting the capital city of Great Britain, having an extraordinary travel experience is not an option.

Keep in mind that to attain the extraordinary travel experience, you need to make the most of the city you are visiting. Here are 7 extraordinary activities you can do to make the most of your London trip this summer.
