Walking London : London Eye to Tower Bridge via River Thames South Bank
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 11. 2023
- I take a walk on the riverside path of the gorgeous River Thames for the first time from the London Eye with gorgeous views of Big Ben & The Palace of Westminster to the Tower Bridge. Along the way I come across points of interest such as The Shard, Shakespeare's Globe, The National Theatre, and Tate Modern.

AK, just a thought but you should try marmite on toast whilst you're over here. The tag line is ' you'll either love it or hate it' . Personally I love it 😊
Thanks for the suggestion!
Great walk in London once again , like i coudn’t believe that how pricey The London Eye can be yikes😯As always it’s great to see all the bridges and all along the River Thames 😎Thank you for sharing this enjoyable and relaxing walk A K🙂👍!!!
So true! The London Eye is pricey!
Thank you, AK for a great walk along the South Bank in London - one of my favourite London walks!🥰 Btw you pronounced Winchester perfectly the first time, “win chess tur”👏👏👏 And in England, “borough” is always pronounced “burra”👍 I remember reading years ago, whoever it was in America who bought London Bridge, actually thought they were buying Tower Bridge👀 - an easy mistake to make!😉 Thank you again for a great video👌
PS: Southwark Cathedral is pronounced “Suth-erk” 😊🙏
You’re welcome, thanks for watching! I really enjoyed this walk too
43.38 Neat to see the bicycle bells on the wall. 🛎 52:44 This is such a cool musical installation! 🎶 I never thought about the meaning of "London Bridge Is Falling Down" until you mentioned it here. The tune of this nursery rhyme sounds upbeat, so I looked it up and the meaning is quite dark. 😲 Overall, this was such a lovely walk and it's quite overwhelming to see all the beautiful landmarks that you've shown along River Thames! 😍 Thank you so much for this informative and scenic stroll, AK! 🤗
My pleasure! It was so fun to do this walk
Beautiful city of London with the shopping, museums, art galleries, architecture, bridges, etc. The only thing missing is a theme park like Disney or Universal Studios 🙂. London does have Thorpe Park, Harry Potter Studios, Legoland, Chessington World of Adventure, etc. as options for family entertainment. But not as extensive as what Orlando offers.
It’s great London doesn’t have a homeless problem like in the US cities as far as I can see from the videos AK.
Even though London does offer theme parks for families, we welcome families from the UK to enjoy Orlando and many do visit the Orlando theme parks.
I’m thankful to be living in Florida and not too far away from Orlando.
If you have not been to it, go to Borough Market on a Saturday. That is it's big day. At London Bridge Tube Station, there is an exit on the Northern line marked "Borough".
All kinds of foods and drink are possible. Oysters, Ostrich & Kangaroo Burgers, Oysters, Wild Mushrooms, Cheeses, ordinary Burgers, Venison, Praw and Prawn & Fish wraps, Paellas, Ales, Ciders
London really is pretty! I wish you had turned to the side at times, I wanted to see what was going on around the walk - I heard music and noise, which I imagined would have been cool pop ups.
My last time on the London eye was with a class of year 6’s school children. We fitted in one of the carriages. We just loved it. It was fascinating looking down on all the huge houses with garden courts, which on street level you only see the front facade. You don’t realise how big these building actually are and how beautiful too. We also visited The Globe Theatre and walked passed the This Morning Studio as they were on air.
So cool! Thanks for sharing
Dear Kenny, I've been watching you from the beginning man, from when you didn't speak in your videos, and up to this point I've adored your content. Recently though your mid-roll ads are relentless, coming in every four minutes, making you I'm afraid to say more or less unwatchable 😥. I know you have to generate an income, but please consider your viewership and consider cutting down a little on the frequency of your ads, giving us something more of a better flowing viewing experience, as you used to.
You excel at this stuff, Kenny - you are the masterblaster original. Don't let the motivation for money become your sole driver. Much love and respect to you.
I understand the ads are annoying. However, AK has put numerous of hours into creating and providing quality content, and we get to watch his videos for free at the comfort in front of our digital devices. Letting the ads run is one of our ways to support him and enable him to go on many more adventures.
London all day! AK with the clutch vid!
The “original” London Bridge (the one that’s “falling down”) was replaced in about 1831. It was always falling down because it was 600 years old!!!
The American who bought the new (at the time) London Bridge was mistaken. However he claimed to be perfectly happy with his purchase.
Very interesting and pleasant tour, Thanks AK for sharing your london experience 😊
My pleasure 😊 Glad you enjoyed it!
@@ActionKidI love your channel, but I wish you’d swing your camera to the right and left every now and then. For instance, I would really like to have seen the HMS Belfast cruiser 1:45.
I had to go online and Google it. 🚢
epic!
50:25 London Bridge isn't mistaken for Tower Bridge. It's the other way around. Many people refer to Tower Bridge as London Bridge.
This walk was Legendary! Thanks so much for sharing AK! 🎉🥳🏰
53:39 😆 I have no idea why they taught that to us as kids 🙄
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
@@ActionKidWhat was that big round building on the right near Tower Bridge? 1:02:49
@@bookgirlny8511that was City Hall - the mayor’s office/office for the Greater London Authority - until 2021.
Not sure what it’s used for now.
@@eastender_ thx
By the way, the London Bridge in Lake Havasu is the second bridge (the current one is the third). The first (original) bridge is long gone, with only a few small remnants left.
❤❤ Good Thursday Morning y Special Friend IAM Hoping That You Are Having A Brilliant day
We Really Appreciate You For Inviting All Of Us To Walk Along With You In London England That's On My Bucket List To Visit The UK
Much Blessings And Love Always Ms British Gray From Tampa Florida ❤❤
Thank you so much
@@ActionKid It's Always My Pleasure
I love the map.
London bridge is falling down is related to the Medieval Bridge (the one with shops on it), that was decayed by the 1700s and parts of it were litterly falling off into the Thames. The Bridge after that is the one that is in Arizona as that couldn't handle the heavy traffic in the 60's, its a shame they didnt just reduce traffic as the one they built on a budget is horrible.
Thanks for the insight!
London Eyes 👀 is the latest attraction in London...the fees surrounding the Big Ben like River Thames Cruise 🛳 entrance to underground water world, horror house, museum and art gallery will set you back by GBP 400 to 500....rather expensive..... thanks AK for sharing this vblog with us 🎉😂
You’re welcome, glad you enjoyed the walk!
A lot of that is in the London Pass - only £124 for a 48 hour pass. And most museums and galleries are free in London.
Origins. The Roman legions established a settlement known as "Londinium" on the current site of the City of London around AD 43. Its bridge over the River Thames turned the city into a road nexus and major port, serving as a major commercial centre in Roman Britain until its abandonment during the 5th century.
Hi Ak, the south bank is one of my favourite places in London, better in the long summer days and warmer 😁 always lots going on there, often stop off there on the way home from work and listen to the different buskers take my own food and drink there it's cheaper, food for thought have you thought about taking the river bus from Westminster Pier to Greenwich which is a very popular place to visit you could compare Greenwich village London to Greenwich village NYC 😁
Thinking about it Ken some others have mentioned it, Canary Wharf it's not my thing but if you wanted to go there, there's a really cool pedestrian foot tunnel that goes under the Thames and pops up on the Isle of Dogs where you could walk to Canary Wharf and get the DLR back to the Bank tube station in the city.
Totally agree! Glad you love doing this walk too
Thx for another great walk AK, as always you make it very enjoyable to watch. Wondered if you've visited the National Covid Memorial Wall near Big Ben where anyone can leave a message for a loved one, a nice touch from the city of London ❤
You’re welcome, thanks so much for watching!
💰 The London Bridge in the Arizona desert is always for sale. 💰
Hi AK timezone doesnt count for me, i am in the Netherlands 😅
I see you pass by interesting things with no mention. For one was that old wood boat. You were more concern about upstairs eating in a resturant.😮
Hey AK. Thank you for another beautiful walk.. But it would be nice if you could answer me a question: why do you have to mute copyrighted music in your live streams, but not in your recorded videos? That's a thing I dont understand 🤔
You’re welcome! Thanks so much for watching! It’s much easier to see what CZcams flags for copyright matches on a recorded video as opposed to a live stream.
Hey AK, you can pre-book the London Eye for £25.50 on certain days of the week. I've done it 3 times and loved it, especially at night.
Too expensive. Especially when there are better views of the city elsewhere that are free.
Good to know! I still think it’s too pricey though.
@seansmith445 I've done all the views in London and love them all for different reasons.
I’d say a walk up Hampstead Heath is a must do. I think that’d make a good video.
You should go into the Tower of London and say hi to Beefy 409 ☺️
Is madametussauds still near the Tower? I remember something from my primary school London trip back in the 70’s . We only went in to the shop but went in to the Planetarium. I loved that..
@ninaj8981 Madam Tussaud’s is near Regents Park. ☺️
@action kid
No idea how long you’re in London for but London’s newest, highest viewing deck is open - and free.
You’ll need to book a slot online. It’s called Horizon 22.
£45 to go on the Eye?? Wow. I went on it in 2008 maybe and it was way less. I still have the ticket somewhere. We went at night and it was very cool, but that is too much.
London Eye was just £7 when it first opened 23 years ago.
I went on the London Eye 👁 as part of a package deal including coach travel and a boat tour on the Thames. I don't recall how much it was now, but I don't think I'd pay that much just for that, I really don't. It must rival Madame Tussauds 🤢

- Excuse me, how do you pronounce the name of this palace? I'm from America.
- Winchester.
- Winchester? It's Winchester?
- Winchester I would say. I'm French you know, I'm not.
2nd tallest wheel in the world, 443 ft.
Do you plan to hire a bike (as the Brits say) and ride around?
you must have hit the school holidays lots of children when the schools are off
What the heck has fallen in front of a man on 10:00?
The people dress similar to New Yorkers.
Most of that area would be 70% tourists.
You see the real London style, or as the fashion world calls it: 'The London Look' in other parts of London.
Tap to Focus on camera when close up to signs and menus is a good thing or it's just fully out of focus.
i see london has the same type of trees we have in new york city dont know the name
London Plane Trees.
Bye 👋🏾 😅😅😅
🤣 😂it’s pronounced Lake Havasu ( have a sue) in Arizona. Oh my goodness dude the London bridge song you need to really do research on stuff before you talk about it bahahaha. To bad you didn’t show the shard or talk about tower bridge ( there’s a glass walk way in top of tower bridge you can stand on and watch the people and cars on bridge below.) Compared to the price of the London eye the Tower of London is cheap entry price 😂
Shame you have little interest in the history you walked by. Nice walk, though.
