From diamonds in Antwerp to royal jewels in London, this route is definitely one for travellers who love buzzing destinations. You’ll start in Antwerp, where architecture dating back to the middle-ages gives every street a photogenic charm. But don’t think there isn’t a modern scene in this city, Antwerp has some fantastic nightlife for you to discover. Good thing the Eurostar’s super comfy (especially if you go Business Premier) carriages will be carrying you to London the next morning. The journey will take around three and a half hours on the fastest services.
Head to the Tower of London if you want to see how the royals do diamonds or you can see London’s own diamond district in Hatton Garden. If you’re happy to settle for a more organic sort of sparkle, then a cruise down the Thames is just the ticket, or perhaps you’d prefer the twinkle of stars, in which case the Greenwich Observatory is a great destination. Of course, just walking around central London from Piccadilly Circus to Bond Street and into Carnaby Street will give you plenty of pretty to marvel at, and to eat, with lots of stylish eateries located along the way.
