[quote=Anonymous]All of these day trips sound exhausting and don’t leave much time for actually explore the cities you’re in! But to each their own. So much depends on your specific kids and their interest. We have a mix of kids who love to learn and see cool old stuff and also ones who need to run and play a lot in between activities. I suggest looking into museums and anything else you want to do ASAP. Some things we wanted to do had admissions limits due to Covid and we didn’t realize it until too late to get tickets for the limited window of time we had. And some things were closed certain days of the week, which I didn’t consider!

We have done both of those cities with kids, though ours are younger. London highlights were the Tower of London (beefeaters are hilarious)  London Eye and the playground at the base there, getting treats in St. James Park, going to the playground and walking by Buckingham palace and the changing of the horse guards, and the London Transport Museum, but that may not be as much fun for older kids. We stayed in a suite at the Taj and had a great meal in the Indian restaurant there. Also at Dishoom. My kids loved the Diana playground, we had tea at the Milestone hotel near there and it was very fancy and delicious.

Had an AirBnB in Paris but I can’t remember exactly where. Couldn’t find a hotel with enough space! Kids loved the playground near Les Halles, I can’t remember the name but it is only open certain hours and they just let kids in while the adults wait outside, which my kids thought was amazing. Also loved the Eiffel Tower, seeing the Mona Lisa, a boat tour and eating tons of pastries and delicious food. Oh, and the Pompidue! [/quote]
