Located a mere 60 miles from London, Southampton is best known for its amazing landscapes, vast coastlines and beautiful countryside. Before your cruise, drive over to London, to appreciate all it has to enjoy. From familiar landmarks to equally great food, you can experience a lot in a very short time. Experience Buckingham Palace first-hand, and take memorable pictures of the King’s Guards in full uniform, with their red jackets and bearskin hats. Then head over to the medieval Windsor Castle to continue your royal experience. A trip to London isn’t complete without visiting the famous Big Ben, towering atop the elaborate Gothic building of The Houses of Parliament.
