5 day itinerary for London

Personalized with:

*"Plan a highly efficient 5-day London itinerary starting and ending at Heathrow Airport (LHR). I am travelling from Singapore on Singapore Airlines / British Airways overnight flights, meaning I land very early on Day 1 (approx. 06:00 AM) and depart late on Day 5 (approx. 09:00 PM). Please maximize these two crucial half-days.Core Sights to Include:    •    Harry Potter: 1 full day dedicated to the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London via the Euston/Watford Junction train route, plus a visit to the Platform 9 ¾ trolley photo spot at King's Cross Station and Hamleys Toy Store on Regent Street.    •    London Icons: Big Ben, the London Eye, Tower Bridge, and watching the Palace Guards / Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace.Strict Dining Constraints:    •    My family is strictly vegan. The entire itinerary must feature 100% plant-based restaurants located directly along our sightseeing routes to eliminate any risk of cross-contamination (e.g., Mildreds in Victoria/King's Cross, Mallow in Borough Market, Tofu Vegan, and Cream Dream in Covent Garden).Specific Shopping Stops (Local Prices):    •    Academic Books: Dedicate time in the Bloomsbury university district to find cheap, clearance, or second-hand IB and IGCSE French curriculum textbooks at Waterstones Gower Street, Judd Books, and Skoob Books.    •    Supermarket Staples & Snacks: A stop at a massive Tesco or Sainsbury's to buy Finish Ultimate/Quantum dishwasher tablets, British vitamins/supplements, and local vegan-friendly treats like M&S Percy Pigs and McVitie's Chocolate Hobnobs.Logistics:    •    We will use trains and the Tube exclusively (tapping with contactless Singapore cards), using the Elizabeth Line for all airport transfers. Suggest a strategic hotel base like Paddington that accommodates easy bag-drop for an early arrival and late departure."*
