London…to talk about the city in one guide wouldn’t do it any credit so we are going to do it in parts.

Getting there

  • Whether you come to London by plane, train ,coach or bus it will be the start of an amazing time
  • There are so many areas to stay it would be difficult to recommend and dependent on your itinerary.

Where to eat

  • Borough Market – this is located near to London Bridge, there has been a market on the site since the 12th century, it hosts stalls with British and international wares, just wandering around taking in the sights and smells and different cultural cuisines makes you hungry.
  • The Southbank seems to always have something going on, whether it’s food or drink related. They have street food to craft beers to cocktails, we spent time at a Christmas festival/ market and made you feel very festive, we have also visited in the summer where there was good vibes and things to tempt you.
  • Camden Lock hosts a market and literally they sell everything you can think of. Alongside this the food range is from jerk chicken to vegan to pizza you name it and you can probably find it here, a whole host of tempting treats, might want to walk along the towpath to build up an appetite for these delights.

Other Things to Know
