    So sorry, I completely messed up and forgot Borough Market is closed Mondays! I still recommend going, but just in a different day if you can fit it in!

    This itinerary is so well done. I watched a lot of videos on the topic and this one has to be among the best! Thank you so much! I would consider making other itineraries for different durations. I think people going for 3 days might not click on a 7 day one, even tough of course it would still be useful to them. But you know, people are lazy :)

    I like to go later in the day when all the bus trippers have gone. My family likes to go through sights at speed so it’s not a problem. Go up to the Royal Observatory, in Greenwich, in the evening so that you can see the Meridien light.

    Hello! Thank you for your video, I will travel to London for the third time in April so I've been looking for new stuff to visit and your video helped a lot. Both times I went there was only for 3 days so I didn't eat at restaurants or anywhere really mainly because I never know if we have to tip or not in England. I've been searching quite a few times on the internet but some people say you have to and some people say you don't so I hope you can answer my question

    • @emily_meadows
      @emily_meadows  Год назад

      Most of the time a service charge is already included in the bill. If it isn’t you can ask to add a tip, but there’s no obligation.

    Wife and I are doing London last week of September. Many thanks for suggestions and the visuals, it helps. we hadn't planned on Greenwich, but now it's on the list. Liberty for sure, Portobello road on Saturday plus any antique stores, I think maybe on New Bond St. Wife is a big junker. What about Spitalfields Market? Worth it?

    • @emily_meadows
      @emily_meadows  8 месяцев назад +1

      I do like Spitalfields, but you’ll find a lot of the same stuff there as the other markets. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area, but I wouldn’t recommend going out of your way.

    If you pay an extra £5 you can go into the roof of Westminster Abbey where’s there’s an exhibition of clothes worth seeing. You’re in the roof so the view is amazing, both into the floor of the abbey and outside. You’ll probably only go into the abbey once so pay the extra and you won’t be disappointed.

    • @emily_meadows
      @emily_meadows  6 месяцев назад

      Yes! You can take the Uber boat from Embankment Pier. You’ll miss seeing Big Ben from the river, but you’ll still get to see Tower Bridge and St. Paul’s among other things. Just be sure to check the Thameslink app for the routes and timetables.

    1 Remember to pack shoes that are comfortable to walk in!
    2 A good place to see a view of Saint Paul's Cathedral is on Ludgate - one of the roads leading down from St Paul's towards the West. Walk down it and turn left into Pilgrim Street, walk along this and look West to see Saint Bride's church (another Wren church), which has a tiered spire.

    Hi Emily-going in July. Is this a good time to visit?
    If we follow this 7 day itinerary, where do you recommend staying? What area? We’re a family of 5, two teenagers & 1 elementary school child. We are not a fan of Airb&b’s…4 star accommodation at least.

    • @emily_meadows
      @emily_meadows  Год назад

      July is a great time to visit. Some areas I really like that are quite central are Mayfair, Marylebone, Notting Hill, and Chelsea. But honestly as long as you stay within a 10 minute walk of a tube station you can get anywhere in London very quickly.
