Great guide. Transport: The Underground (Tube) trains do not have aircon (a few newer trains may do) and are usually hot, even in Winter, and are unbearably hot in the Summer. They are often old and grubby. Walkways and platforms are also hot and stuffy with lots of stairs and escalators. Buses have a regular replacement program so they are modern and clean with good ventilation and disabled access. They have route information screens with voice guidance. Buses can be slower than the Tube, at peak times, but they are usually less crowded because they are very frequent. Also, you can see the city from the bus and journeys cost less than the Tube.
there are so many great museums that are free. British, Natural History, National Gallery, Victoria and Albert and Science. London also has more parks per mile that any other city in the world.
Hello @sushma Prakash please could you give.me a little info about getting bus and tram pass is by travel card or I can get by cash? Thanks ,visiting soon I London
I recommend staying in South Kensington specifically near the Gloucester tube - most of those hotels are within 100 meters of the tube, it's on 3 lines (circle, Piccadilly & 1 other that links easy to every major attractions with those lines), can catch the bus or walk to the museums, Harrods & Kensington Palace, are near a Waitrose & Tesco for groceries and a laundry mat. It's also far cheaper then the hotels near Westminster and Covent Garden but not that far - some of London's hotels are crazy expensive and I've stayed in 5* elsewhere. And don't forget to cash in the remaining value on your Oyster Card before you leave. London pass is also such bad value as you won't get to the amount of attractions to make it worth a day pass - check if it makes sense for you!
totally! I've been in London many times and once in the Gloucester area. I'll go again in June and my cousin, even without telling her, booked a hotel in that area...
Ella Wu Hi Ella you can get balances of £10 or less (plus the deposit) from the ticket machine at any Tube station. I believe above this and you can only apply for the refund by post but I've never done that. www.visitlondon.com/traveller-information/getting-around-london/oyster-faqs/how-to-get-a-refund
Bucking Palace is not open all year. The Queen goes to Balmoral in July till October. So it's open during that time. Keep your eye on your belongings, especially your phone and money. Travel outside of rush hour, 7 am till 9.30 and 4pm until 7pm. Avoid going in the summer as it's full of tourists and very hot weather. Travel on the tube, not the buses. Taxis are expensive. Stay at a hotel near a tube station. Restaurants are expensive. Use take always like Macdonalds and KFC. The Elizabeth tower is currently undergoing repairs and Big Ben won't be striking again until August 2021. I used to live in London and I have been there many times as I live in Yeovil England.
I plan on going my first time next summer and I am from the U.S. U have any tips or info for where to stay the first time and stuff. I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
London can be expensive but your exactly right if you go on trip advisor you can find some very nice restaurants that are very reasonable in ptice,the same with hotels. Ive done all of the Free museums and the Victoria And Albert museum is my favorite one.The free art galleries are great for art lovers and you will find many paintings from a lot of the masters in them
I honestly find it interesting how other people in different countries find London so interesting- I usually go to London like once or twice a month (obviously not right now) but tbh I really don’t like going😂😂 I find it pretty boring aside from the shops, but it’s definitely a tourist attraction for people who enjoy sight seeing! I hope you’ll enjoy your time there😁
I visited London for the 1st time in 10/2017. It rained everyday I was there. Now I understand why. I did not know October is the rainiest month. 😣 Still had a great time.
Wow, we're from the Philippines and we're so grateful that we have found this site, we've been looking for something that we feel that we've reached a place that can never be. One of these is London. This video is also and educational one. We feel we're also tourists in the place lol. Wishing that we, me and my husband will also reach this place. Hope someone will have an sponsor lol. Thanks for the sharing. Two thumbs up!
I have been to London in 2017 or 2016 (i don't remember) and I would kill to go again. It was so beautiful and I wish I would've visited more attractions and stayed longer
So Encouraging. My father has been living and working in London for Four Years before I was born. But I do not have the chance yet to be there once again except for Fly passing. But still future to come as this city is one of my best favorite to see especially in hot season. Ha ha .
I’m traveling to London for new year and already booked National Express from Stansted to London and hostel 😃 Luckily we were so lucky with hostel and it is 10 minutes from London Eye. Can’t waitttt!! ❤️
National Express is a fantastic service that we have used on several trips from OZ. Much cheaper than trains and you get help with your luggage, If you're old (like me) there is a cheaper fare as well, NE serves most places and I highly recommend them, cheers from OZ.
I've lived in England for over 30 years and I've only been to (greater) London twice (only in the airport). I might go one day. Manchester, Newcastle and Liverpool are my favourite places to visit. Cheaper too.
I just wanted to take a moment to compliment you on your fantastic RUclips channel. Your content is always engaging, informative, and a pleasure to watch. Keep up the great work, and I can't wait to see what you have in store for us in the future!
From Heathrow and Gatwick to central London, you can take a regular train - Heathrow Connect from Heathrow or almost any train heading North from Gatwick. The Heathrow and Gatwick Express services are faster but very expensive.
I am getting ready to go to London this weekend for 9 days with my husband and daughter. I am so excited as this is first time for my daughter and I. I just downloaded some apps per your recommendation. Thank you so much for your video
Great video, great suggestions. But you missed one of the most important ones - even if it is a negative one - Dont attempt to drive in London, It will drive you crazy
"Avoid less touristy areas for safety" - lol. The vast majority of Londoners live and work in non touristy areas! For a city of its size, London is a relatively safe. Of course there are some dangerous areas but visitors are not likely to go there as there's nothing to see. The reason why tipping in restaurants is not mandatory is because the vast majority (probably 80/90%) add a service charge to the bill, usually around 10/12.5%. Avoid very cheap eats in London because they are cheap for a reason. It's an expensive city and if you come with a very low budget you won't get anywhere near the best experience out of your visit.
I had wanted to watch this video before to go to London. But not problem, in my second trip I will know everything what I have to do!! Thanks a lot !!!
Btw there’s literally no pickpocketing in London it’s more muggings and violent crime but that only happens in the rougher areas (same as other big cities)
I don't live in London lol. But I do live in the UK a couple of counties over in the Cotswolds. I have visited London a few times before and there are some things you should be aware of: If you are driving there is nowhere to park! If you find somewhere to do so, it is extremely expensive and some hotels don't have carparks. When booking a hotel make sure it has access to the Tube and always check the reviews. If you are driving I would seriously reconsider! In touristy areas expect everything to be really overpriced. I visited Camden Market and a London hoodie was nearly £30 (around $40) leave touristy areas and goods are fairly priced. Be aware of dangers. Knife crime has risen in the last few months across the whole of the UK especially in cities. Don't make yourself a target: don't have your phone in your back pocket, don't speak loudly specifying that you are a tourist etc. Terror attacks aren't impossible. Keep yourself safe and dial 999 for emergencies and 101 for things that don't need immediate attention i.e situations where you are not in danger. The weather is very unpredictable, bring a coat no matter what time of year it is and plan trips according to the weather. Enjoy your stay - remember these things are extremely unlikely and only for you to be aware of. I'm sure anyone would be happy to help you or give you advice whilst you're staying. :)
I’m going to be travelling to London today. I’m somewhat terrified. But also excited, I love London culture from bits I’ve seen. Even just using google maps to find the way to my hotel, it’s all so beautiful and like a movie.
If you want a cheap place (but still very good quality) to stay in London try the premier inn in Kenton that’s where I usually stay your literally right beside the bakerloo line that will take you straight to Oxford Circus where you can explore and get tourist busses ect
U be ok, just remember on the Underground. Central Line,District, Bakerloo, Hamersmith n City. If U Use those. They will get U ALL Round Central London. Their is ALWAYS Manned Staffing points ON ALL Train, Underground Stns. And if U ever Lost. Always Ask a Police Officer. And Enjoy. 🌈
im guessing you didnt go due to covid, but trust me its extremely easy to get around london if you use google maps, since there are bus stops and train stations everywhere, so you dont need to walk much
Also Stratford for the Orbital, Canary Wharf for skyscrapers and some shopping, Kew for the gardens and a couple of interesting smaller museums,. Keep an eye out for blue plaques marking homes of famous people. If you have a longer stay the check the National Trust and English Heritage websites for places in and near London.
Here are some more advices. For a comfortable stay, avoid the "charming" hotels in bayswater! There are nicer hotels for not that much more money. Check what ratings other travellers gives the hotels. And getting around is sometimes faster if you walk, for example between leiceter and covent garden. Don't be afraid to explore areas where you haven't been before. Last time i stayed in islington, which have a small-town feel to it but with lots of chops and pubs.
Useful video, thanks... I visited London and stayed approximately 6 weeks. London is one of dream cities in my opinion. Particularly museums perfect 👌🏻If you have a chance absolutely try to visit.
I couldn't agree more! ^ And I think the European Metro works very well! Today I was very lucky to get the European Metro travel discount through some ways? 😊
The famous landmark in london is the Elizabeth tower currently undergoing renovation, it will reopen to public around 2021. I will visit london only after the tower reopens back.
you can also book a hotel in Essex which will be cheaper and then just travel to London with an Oyster card which you can top up at many shops and not just the railway stations if you're not looking for something too spectacular then you could get The Travelodge hotel or Ibis hotel and they also have them in a place called Barking which will be cheaper and is about 45 mins train ride to the city of London :)
The high temperature anywhere during June, July, August can hit 90-100F. It rarely gets down to minimum lows of 33 F during winter. It's usually around 50's f, 40 s + lows / 65f + for the highs).
I haven been to london couple of times and i feel best time to visit UK during summer is june to september, best way for traveling is under ground aka tubes make sure u should have a Oster card, can discover free museums, free sky garden it's also LONDON'S HIGHEST PUBLIC GARDEN, for accommodation if solo traveler hostel is the best way otherwise with fam can go with Air bnb, food isn't cheap anywhere accept one place called whitechaple..one tourist place is also nearby called brick lane famous for some best walls artwork and for pubs and @10:55 that view/place is greenwich university.
Planning a trip to london in August. I'm so fucking excited my first time traveling outside of my own country. Thankfully I have a friend who help with a bunch of stuff
If you don't want to take public transport to get around - don't get tempted by black cabs, they are wildly expensive. Download either Bolt or Kapten apps for reasonably priced taxis/cabs journeys. Uber is being phased out (as far as I'm aware) so wouldn't recommend them. Bolt and Kapten are mostly cheaper than them anyway. If you are travelling on the underground during rush hour - my best advice would be to... Walk. Fast. It's dog eat dog down there. On the escalators, stand on the right and never on the left. Just, trust me here. Also wait for people to get off the train before trying to get on. Pushing to get on while people are getting off is a surefire way to p*ss people off. Queues are also... A way of life here. Again, jumping queues is self sacrificial. The random hot dog stands you'll see dotted around are mostly gross and unhygienic. I've seen one rinse off tupperware in the Thames. Buy yourself a bum bag (fanny pack, whatever the US calls it) cause the pickpockets are wild. Other than that... Lovely bunch of people. Mostly.

I'im traveling to London in August too!!! :D first time
I’m am from Texas and i have been to London many times I highly recommend the underground it is very efficient
Hey Doug, exactly, probably one of the most efficient underground systems in the world
Double-decker busses are cheaper, normally get you closer to where you want to be, and you get a great view from the top deck.
We are (finally) headed over end of this year, my family and I are also from Texas! So excited, thanks for the tips!
but no air-conditioner...imagine when it's hot weather..

MANY THANKS FOR WONDERFUL AND VERY VALUABLE INFORMATION.
I’m going to London in June all by myself and I’m already anxious about the transports lmao I’m sure I’ll get lost somehow
U be ok, just remember on the Underground. Central Line,District, Bakerloo, Hamersmith n City. If U Use those. They will get U ALL Round Central London. Their is ALWAYS Manned Staffing points ON ALL Train, Underground Stns. And if U ever Lost. Always Ask a Police Officer. And Enjoy. 🌈
Read the maps
Where are you from originally also hope you enjoyed it
im guessing you didnt go due to covid, but trust me its extremely easy to get around london if you use google maps, since there are bus stops and train stations everywhere, so you dont need to walk much
If your not sure then ask locals, bus drivers or train station staff.
Also Stratford for the Orbital, Canary Wharf for skyscrapers and some shopping, Kew for the gardens and a couple of interesting smaller museums,. Keep an eye out for blue plaques marking homes of famous people. If you have a longer stay the check the National Trust and English Heritage websites for places in and near London.
Here are some more advices. For a comfortable stay, avoid the "charming" hotels in bayswater! There are nicer hotels for not that much more money. Check what ratings other travellers gives the hotels. And getting around is sometimes faster if you walk, for example between leiceter and covent garden. Don't be afraid to explore areas where you haven't been before. Last time i stayed in islington, which have a small-town feel to it but with lots of chops and pubs.
magnus nilsson Leicester Square, not leiceter - where there is a street, road, square or similar in the name then always include it.
I live in London Wow! Your so true and accurate!
I live in Azerbaijan. I would like to see London with my own eyes! :))
Useful video, thanks... I visited London and stayed approximately 6 weeks. London is one of dream cities in my opinion. Particularly museums perfect 👌🏻If you have a chance absolutely try to visit.
Wow, in 6 weeks you can really cover everything :)
London has always been my home for over 30 years and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
So happy to read this 💞

Many compliments for this beautiful video! Thank you very much!
Thank you Sergio, enjoy London :)
By the way, there is a discount on the European Metro! I like it very much! I got it again today!😂❤❤❤
Thank you so much Guy for giving these instructions about London
I couldn't agree more! ^ And I think the European Metro works very well! Today I was very lucky to get the European Metro travel discount through some ways? 😊
The famous landmark in london is the Elizabeth tower currently undergoing renovation, it will reopen to public around 2021. I will visit london only after the tower reopens back.
The video really helps me better understand the city for planning a trip!
Thanks :) Glad you find it useful! Enjoy your trip ;)
you can also book a hotel in Essex which will be cheaper and then just travel to London with an Oyster card which you can top up at many shops and not just the railway stations
if you're not looking for something too spectacular then you could get The Travelodge hotel or Ibis hotel and they also have them in a place called Barking which will be cheaper and is about 45 mins train ride to the city of London :)
The high temperature anywhere during June, July, August can hit 90-100F. It rarely gets down to minimum lows of 33 F during winter. It's usually around 50's f, 40 s + lows / 65f + for the highs).
I haven been to london couple of times and i feel best time to visit UK during summer is june to september, best way for traveling is under ground aka tubes make sure u should have a Oster card, can discover free museums, free sky garden it's also LONDON'S HIGHEST PUBLIC GARDEN, for accommodation if solo traveler hostel is the best way otherwise with fam can go with Air bnb, food isn't cheap anywhere accept one place called whitechaple..one tourist place is also nearby called brick lane famous for some best walls artwork and for pubs and @10:55 that view/place is greenwich university.
Nice video.
Thank you for your tips.
I am traveling to London in August.
Any other solo traveller here?
Vibzee yeah im going end of july
@@leab.6600 ohh great....for a solo trip?

i love London too much 💕💕😍
thank you brather 🌷💕😍👏
Thank you :)
Thank you for provided useful info ........keep traveling enrich your life
Thanks 😀 Agree 😉
AlWAYS stand on the right when using the escalators at tube stations or you might be pushed away 😅
Planning a trip to london in August. I'm so fucking excited my first time traveling outside of my own country. Thankfully I have a friend who help with a bunch of stuff
Enjoy :)
Very good. You will be made welcome but be careful of swearing in public. It may seem like a pastime in UK but it is actually a criminal offence 👍
Thank you for the video! It's very useful!
I live in England and I just watched this for fun
probably the best video on London I've ever seen
Thanks Raj 😀
I hope I could be in London in my future.
I went to London in the month of May/2019 from Bangalor (lndia) via Muscat and backed via Paris
If you don't want to take public transport to get around - don't get tempted by black cabs, they are wildly expensive. Download either Bolt or Kapten apps for reasonably priced taxis/cabs journeys.
Uber is being phased out (as far as I'm aware) so wouldn't recommend them. Bolt and Kapten are mostly cheaper than them anyway.
If you are travelling on the underground during rush hour - my best advice would be to... Walk. Fast. It's dog eat dog down there. On the escalators, stand on the right and never on the left. Just, trust me here.
Also wait for people to get off the train before trying to get on. Pushing to get on while people are getting off is a surefire way to p*ss people off.
Queues are also... A way of life here. Again, jumping queues is self sacrificial.
The random hot dog stands you'll see dotted around are mostly gross and unhygienic. I've seen one rinse off tupperware in the Thames.
Buy yourself a bum bag (fanny pack, whatever the US calls it) cause the pickpockets are wild.
Other than that... Lovely bunch of people. Mostly.
Thanks. I’m planning to go EVERYWHERE in London and this helps
Haha, glad to hear 😀 Enjoy!
