Trip to London

Attractions

You and two friends are going to make a short trip to London. You are staying for two nights and three days. During your stay you have six different places that you want to visit, however you only have the time to see four of them. Check out the websites and pick out the ones you like the most. Then write down which sights you choose and why.

Example:

I have chosen to go to Hyde Park because I really like the outdoors, and since I'm a student cheap attractions are always appreciated. I also want to go to Madame tussads wacxmuseum since it's almost like meeting a lot of celebrities at once. I'm a great football fan so naturally a visit to Emirates is a part of the plan. Then I'll finish with a visit to Camden market to buy some nice clothes and check out the place.

Under resan kommer du att behöva ha med dig pengar. Hur mycket behöver du i svenska kronor och hur mycket blir det i pund? Räkna med att du behöver äta ute minst två gånger om dagen!

Make a budget

You have to make a budget in order to know how much money you have to bring. Down below you see a pricelist. Calculate that you have to eat out a least twice a day for three days, remember that you also have to include two nights at the hotel and the entrance fee for the attractions that you have chosen in your budget. If you want to go to Hyde Park or Camden Market consider that even though the entrance is free you may want to spend some money while you are there.

Once you have a budget in pounds calculate how much Swedish money you need to Exchange.
