The 6 Best Fun Activities & Games in Southbank, England
The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

As you probably agree, the 1-star review here is ridiculous. This is a lovely, intimate branch of Curzon Cinemas, located within Sea Containers house/Mondrian Hotel. The audio-visuals are great, with comfortable seats, really friendly staff, licensed bar and hot drinks & snacks available in the nicely designed foyer. Weekend matinees are very affordably priced. Curzon Mondrian is always my 1st choice cinema.
2. The London Dungeon
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 10,761 reviews
The London Dungeon, one of the UK’s most iconic attractions, has reinvented itself now as a bigger, bolder and better attraction in the vast underground vaults of County Hall on the South Bank, next to the EDF Energy London Eye. The all new multi-million pound attraction will bring 1000 years of authentic London history to life with a unique mix of talented live actors performing in scarily funny shows, stunning special effects, edge of your seat surprises and two exciting thrill rides. Guests will embark on a journey through a dramatic London landscape going back ten centuries. They will be guided through ghastly plague-ridden streets, witness Guy Fawkes’ dramatic plot to blow up Parliament, travel back to Jack the Ripper’s bleak Whitechapel and walk beneath London’s foreboding medieval gates. There are new shows and rides which are more dramatic and surprising than ever, new funnier scripts, more theatrical costumes and styling and more talented actors to play even more colourful villains and blaggards.

We had a great time at the London Dungeon in August 2020. It was much scarier than the old venue at Tooley St. Great interaction with the actors and interesting historical overview of London including the Guy Fawkes, The Great Fire, Jack the Ripper and Sweeney Todd. Excellent social distancing maintained throughout the experience. Highly recommend this day out.

5. Mallets and Hoops
Mallets & Hoops is a unique experience in the heart of London that combines a quintessentially British Sport, Croquet, with socialising. Across 9 pitches and 45 minute sessions, groups of 6 go head to head, to test their strategy and skill before announcing a victor and retreating to the bar. We plan to revolutionise socialising in London, one Hoop at a time.
