London Travel Tips

admin — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 10:41:14 +0000

London should not be visited from June to August. Traffic jams feel much worse on hot days and the queues for everything interesting will be unbearably long. London roads are still congested and the underground railway is often faster than a taxi. There are no tourist-free months but the best days to visit are in May or September, when the days are fairly long. If shopping is the main aim, November – December is even better. Prices drop in the January sales, but the crowds grow correspondingly.

Countryside

If you are compelled to be in London during the peak season, it can be a good idea of spending at least part of the time in the surrounding countryside. Cambridge can be reached by train in an hour from either Kings Cross Station or Liverpool Street Station, and a fine day can be spent touring the colleges and sites. As you might expect of a university town, the shops are ordinary but the pubs are excellent. Oxford, the same distance but in another direction, is equally distinguished academically but rather more industrial. (more…)
