much needed insight, practical application did clear a lot of doubts of mine, i appreciate it broseph!

authentic food in China town LMAO I hollered as an Asian lmao 😂

Thanks for being honest about the important things, not just the cheerful happy stuff the other travel channels go on about! Now i know where not to waste time and also to be aware of phone snatchers

Poorly explained. I wasn’t able to see app screen to follow. How do I know which train is mine( marked on the train? If stop shown on outside of train will it be my stop or last stop in the line?) How do I know which side of the track I should be on? Am I going north or south? I come from a place that does not have underground transportation.

I’m from West Seattle and would love to know how the heck she’s managed to keep working for her Seattle employer while she’s there!! ❤

Thanks 🙏

Sorry Jess - Your crew are doing a great job but you'll always be why we love L&L. ❤❤

Jess looks really fed up😂😂

On my most recent visit I arrived from Dublin and decided to see what the fuss was about the Elizabeth Line (I normally just take the Picadilly). Aer Lingus from Dublin arrives to Terminal 2, so there was a substantial walk to the Elizabeth Line platform to begin with, and which I feel effectively negated the time-saving advantage that would have otherwise been there. When taken together with the higher cost, I will concede that the Elizabeth Line was at least less crowded, but I'll continue taking the Picadilly Line in future.

I've been studying things about the tube station there in London like while taking the escalator that I stand on the right while other people head down on the left!

Now we have listen a American what to do in London lol 😂

U forgot something, we politely line up, for a bus or a shop watever. 1st come 1st serve is our motto. U will have a problem if u try to jump the line for the bus or anything. we take mental notes often 😂

He was a racist

On the escalator you can walk down on either side, but if you stand then stand on the right.

❤❤❤

wow!! This is so good - Imma watch it again!!!

If you are from California you will find prices for accommodations pretty comparable to London ( unless you have 3 people in one room needing real beds not a couch) but the day to day food is MUCH cheaper. Wraps, sandwiches, takeaway sushi, Doner shops and groceries are easily 30% less than the equivalent in CA. Fine dining however is about the same as CA. This was such a fun discovery. My teenagers bought every snack they wanted. 😅

Hey Jess! Great to see you again! We miss watching you here on KZbin. Don’t get me wrong, the other people are great, but it’s always so awesome when you come back every now and then. 😊😉😎 Happy Travels, Jess! Gracias. 😉✈️✌️

Are Ciders a women's drink?

A brilliant guide to London

I would avoid the color of your nails.

I would avoid buying this cheap low quality leather jacket and buy myself something real.

Beautiful historic place in London & can't wait to finally visit soon!!

I’d rather have the shirt lol

I saw this in the morning and it was amazing. The history and key ceremony was so wonderful. Highly recommend it. If you do early morning you may also have VIP early access to the crown jewel area.

Nice!

Just back from London in May 2024. Video was really good explanation of tube basics. What I learned taking London transit system as a 65 year old adult. a. Do not buy an oyster card if you are an adult. Tap cards are used all over London for everything. I had not used one before our trip so I got a new credit card with the wi-fi symbol before we left for the UK and practiced in the US first. b. You need to use the tube and the buses together to get where you are generally going. The maximum charge is the combination of the bus and the tube and we usually maxed out every day. c. Look at doing the bus and tube if your ride on the bus is over 2.5 miles in general. Buses are slow, but frequent. Be down on the exit platform of the bus before your stop. I saw more than one person being too slow getting down from the upper level of a bus and the bus drive away before they could exit the bus at the station they wanted. d. I typed in" London tube timetables" in google to find where buses and tubs stop and how often they stop. I used the Transit for London timetable website. e. I used google maps the night before , planned ahead, and used the google directions to figure out how to get somewhere. Often the directions had too many changes and I tried to figure out the least amount of transit changes. If you miss one bus or tube ride there is usually another one in 5 minutes. f. Nice thing about google maps is if you blow up the map it will show you the where the bus stops are and usually what tube lines are at a tube station. g. Remember bus stops are on the opposite side of the road from what you are used to if you are from the US. The bus announcements are generally correct, but we had a few that were wrong. I used google street views to become familiar with where I should be. h. Older tube lines have smaller train cars that you can not walk inside from one car to another for example, Piccadilly and Northern line. Also on the older lines on long train cars you may not be able to exit at all tube stations at the back cars. They will announce for you to move to another car at a stop before that tube station. i. New tube lines have wider train cars and the cars interconnect on the inside from one car to another for example, District, Circle, and London Overground. j. The Circle and District lines overlap in the central part of London, In the train car there will be an Circle map and on the opposite wall a District map, if going outside of central London make sure you look at the correct map for the train you are on. if staying in central London it does not matter as they stop at the same location. j. When waiting for the tube go to the front or the back of the boarding platform. Most people stand where the entrance/exit comes to boarding platform and those cars are the fullest. k. Usually the older tube stations at small stations will not have an escalator or lift, "Elevator". l. Use the map in the tube station to make sure you are on the right platform, and the train is going where you want. The most confusing tube was the Northern line because is splits at the Beginning , middle and End. I had to ask someone to make sure I was on the correct line. Just like an airline gate you have to know the train, the platform and direction, or end station. The exception was the Circle going clockwise which gave a station in the direction we wanted not the end station. m. Make sure you tap in at a gate that has the green light and a closed gate. When leaving make sure you tap out again. For example, we went to Clapham Junction from the London overground to the National Rail out of London. There is no gate to exit to get on the National Rail, but there were a few tap card like gate stations with no gates to tap out at the end of the line. Otherwise you will be charged the max for that line. n. Last coming out of a tube station I was often not sure of where I was. Most will have a map nearby and they helped me get reoriented.

I’m from the UK and live just outside of London. (Am very familiar with London) I just visited NYC recently for the first time and have to say both London and NYC are amongst the greatest cities in the world. NYC has its fair share of problems in certain areas like homelessness, begging and some lunatic people which you wont find on the same scale in London but where NYC gets it right it simply is unmatched and will totally blow you away. Both are amazing places and if you get to see both in your life you are privileged.

If the SkyGarden is sold out, you can also try 8 Bishopsgate. This must also be reserved.

LOL! You convinced me to get your London Guide with your assurance that you can tell me where all the restrooms are. Now, that's the kind of inside information I need!

hi..may i know is this the same as the royal walk from the bigbustour website?

Great video. I'd just like to say though, that the rest of the UK definitely isn't like Mary Poppins either! :D

Thank you! And I would REALLY like to see London with someone who’s not afraid to tell me that I am being a dick. But I cannot imagine not donating at least a £20 note for a generous and talented artist!!! I would be ASHAMED to walk away without leaving AT LEAST that much!

But but, I want the cheesy London themed souviners lol 😂 We have a travel cupboard where we put small things we've bought where we have travelled. Im looking for a mini Big Ben tower, a red phone booth, maybe a model of Tower Bridge...BUT I will be on the lookout for other non cheesy stuff too. Just has to be stuff we'll be able to get onto a cruise ship without being confiscated

I swear my husband and I could split one fry up and still be full.

Love seeing Leighton house get some love. I checked this out on my trip to London in 2018 and I truly loved it. Leighton is one of my favourites so I'm a bit biased, but with its proximity to holland park and all the awesome things to do there, I find this museum a true gem of the city 🤩

For the Heathrow Express - how do I get my kids through the turnstile if they go for free, because they are under 15? How many stops does the train offer ? Just a couple?

7:36 maybe they were talking about the Eurostar 🤷‍♂️

Any Italian bakeries in London?

Best dumpling spot in Chinatown?

How long were you drinking that 1 pint of cider?? Lol

Mouthwatering for my London trip!

This video is great and it help us in many ways for this coming August trip.. Thank you so much!!!

For me and my dogs the best area to stay is in Greenwich. 100 m to the Greenwich Park in the morning and then with the DLR or by rail to the city. And in the evening relaxing in one of the great pubs/restaurants and a last trip into the park.

Watch till the end guys! THE BLOOPERS GOT ME CRACKING UP!!!!

I hope to see you on the bridge in July , do we get the digital copy as well ??

خیلی خوب بود متشکرم
