Holidays in London will not leave anyone indifferent - here you can admire Big Ben, take a cruise on the Thames, get acquainted with the local culture, see the Royal Guards …
The main types of recreation in London
- Excursion: as part of the tours, you will visit the British Museum, the National Gallery and the Tate Modern, walk around Trafalgar Square, the Royal Botanic Gardens and Hyde Park, see Buckingham Palace, the Tower and Tower Bridge, Westminster Palace and Westminster Abbey, Admiral Nelson's Column, Church of St. Margaret. Is your goal to see the main sights and take interesting pictures? It makes sense to get on the BigBusTour sightseeing bus (having bought a ticket, you can go in and out of the whole day at any stop).
- Active: those who wish can have fun in the nightclubs (“TheEnd”, “Bagley’sStudio”), admire the views from the London Eye, visit the London Aquarium “SeaLife” (1000 sea creatures “huddle” in 2000 million liters of water).
- Event-driven: you can experience the true spirit of London by going to the Yacht Exhibition (January), London Marathon (April-May), Naked Bike Ride (June), City of London Festival Music Festival (June), Thames Festival (September), London Film Festival (October -November).
Prices for tours to London
The best time to visit London is from May to September. The increase in the cost of vouchers to London by about 50-60% is typical for the summer months, September and Christmas tours.
Despite the fact that there is no low season in the capital of England, you can save a little by arriving in this city in October-early December and in February-mid-April. Or you can take an example from some tourists and go on a combined bus tour that involves visits to London, Scotland and Wales.
On a note
Keep in mind that many shops close after 18:00 and only large shopping centers are open on weekends.
It is advisable to get around the city by buses, since taxi services are quite expensive.
Couples can significantly save on visits to museums and cultural events - for this it is worth getting “family tickets” (savings will be 25-50%).
Experienced travelers are advised to bring tea, whiskey, ale, Sherlock Holmes-style caps, designer clothes and accessories, souvenirs with the branded attributes of the Chelsea or Manchester United teams from London.
