Top 5 things to do on your London hen party

London is a terrific city to head to with the girls- there’s a lively atmosphere, loads of things to see and do and a first rate nightlife. If you organise it well, with activities pre-planned and a set evening itinerary then London presents the pinnacle of pre-nuptial partying! The girls will love it and everyone will leave the weekend with fantastic memories. Here are the top five things you can do on your hen party in London:

1. Try some song and dance: With the huge popularity of shows like X Factor, The Voice and Britain’s Got Talent everyone wants to join in with the fun! Try your own hands at some dancing or singing, with one of the many activities on offer in London. Examples include ABBA dancing, Burlesque dancing, Cheerleading lessons, Dirty Dancing, Glee Dancing, Grease Dancing or a Recording Studio Day.

2. Get active: If the big day’s looming then chances are you don’t need an excuse for some extra toning fun, so why not inject some energy and adrenaline into your hen party? Try an activity that you’ve never done before; everyone will have some fabulous stories to take away from the weekend and you’ll have a thoroughly unique experience. Try 4x4 off-road driving, clay shooting, hovercraft racing, mini motos, mud buggies or quad biking for some properly energetic activities.

3. Visit the sights: While you’re on your weekend away with the girls it might be nice to provide everyone with some excellent picture opportunities in the form of the city’s great sights. Take the girls over to the London Eye, The National Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum or the Tower of London. You could buy a guide book and attempt to get round all of the best sites the city has to offer over the course of the weekend.

4. Make the most of the nightlife: There are loads of things to do in the evening, any time of year. If you’re looking for something spooky to do over the winter months then why not take the girls on a ghost tour? During summer you can make the most of the boogie bus and booze cruises, and the rest of the time you can enjoy karaoke and comedy clubs, male shows, greyhound racing and of course clubbing. London has some of the best superclubs in the UK and provides something for everyone in the way of nightlife.

5. Get a set itinerary: The best way to make the most out of a weekend in London with the girls is to make sure everything’s planned beforehand and you have a set itinerary to follow. If you book your hen party way beforehand then chances are activity slots will be open, hotels will be cheaper and train and plane costs could be lower. By organising everything thoroughly the bride-to-be will have a better time and the maid-of-honour will be able to breathe a sigh of relief!
