What else is there to do near The Shard?

London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. Outty ranks every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, grouped into most popular, top rated, family friendly, food and drink, culture and nightlife, so you can build the rest of the day around your The Shard slot.
