Some very helpful suggestions! I agree - London IS massive. You can't know it all, just a neighborhood at a time. I suspect you could live in London your whole life and still be discovering it.

No way. The London Eye is NOT worth it IMHO. Very expensive and you can't really see anything. Go to the Top of St. Paul's for a great view and info. Also, you can use your oyster card to ride one of the thames ferries. No narrative but a fraction of the cost!

I'm so glad you highlighted St. Etienne du Mont. I came upon this beautiful church whilst exploring side streets in the Left Bank. The striking thing was the year the church was founded: 1492 = the same year Columbus set sail for the New World. The layered history of Paris is endlessly amazing!

Jesus, this is like the same videos I’ve seen about New York, congratulating yourselves for living in a major city and offering veiled complaints about tourists by saying “this is a working city.” Everyone knows this. That’s why they are visiting. In fact, people visiting your city also work, so they know how things function. And pretty much everywhere you visit, people are working. Be thankful for those tourist dollars instead of condescending. 😂

Been almost all over the world but never in denmark soooo next week one of bucket list wishes will finally come true🎉🎉🎉 off to copenhagen for a week so definitely i will pay a visit to malmo and maybe stockholm too. First question: im old skool when it comes to exchange money, any kiosk in the city that can be recommended? Forget banks and airports and all those rip off places! Ive always managed to find the perfect exchange rate everywhere i went although i won't have too much time to wonder around, once checked in at the hotel, so maybe someone can offer a quick solution, i would be very grateful and im soooo looking forward to go 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

To be honest, I haven't used cash in Copenhagen/Denmark in around 5-6 years, and I wouldn't know anything about where to get the best exchange rate. My guess would be a bank ATM? 😅

Also great last tip, if I need to look at my phone when I'm out I'll normally stand somewhere not look at it whilst I'm walking along.

You’re coming to London and drinking that inferior Irish beer? Stout porter is originally a London style of beer and there are so many British breweries, including a number in lindin London of course, that do it much better.i recommend a pub called The Harp, on Chandos Place, very close to Trafalgar Square.

A few tips from a Londoner: You will walk a lot; wear comfortable shoes and expect to cover 10km or more a day exploring. Get one of the several public transport apps- these will give you bus and tube routes and times. Public transport is the only sensible way to get around other than walking. Note some bus routes are almost the same as those of tour busses and a fraction the cost. Avoid the West End unless going to a show- it is a tourist rip off. The Tower of London is by far the best attraction; expensive but worth it. Avoid Oxford Street like the plague; if you must go shopping go to Liberty on Regent St. Never go to chain restaurants. Go a couple of streets back from the main tour areas and find smaller places for far better food. Traditional British food is mostly in pubs, but you will find amazing Indian (esp in the east of London), Chinese (esp Soho), Italian, Greek, Jamaican, and many more; Indian food is essentially British to many people. Allow a day for the Museums at South Kensington- Natural History, Science and (my fave) Victoria and Albert. Don't overdo it. If it is feeling a bit much, go to one of the beautiful parks and wind down. Crime to tourists is low BUT there are pick pockets and phone snatchers about so keep an eye on what you are carrying.

Thanks a lot! Haha, well spotted 😎 I went there on a Friday morning at around 11:15am because I knew it would be rammed later in the day and I thought it would be pretty empty (they open at 11)... Boy, I was wrong - it was literally jam-packed and I couldn't get a seat 😅 The Guinness was incredibly smooth, though, and the pub is lovely. Is it worth travelling across town to visit? Probably not, but it's definitely worth checking out for a quick one if you're in Soho/Central London ✌️

I know this may not be very helpful, but it's genuinely impossible to say... We've just had a few days of lovely sunny and crisp winter days, but now it's grey and rainy again 😬 Copenhagen is definitely best in the summertime, but there are still plenty of tourists here in the winter and seeing as the weather is usually so crap, there is a lot of stuff to do indoors too.

Hello great info! We will be visiting London for the first time in Spring. We are so excited I am doing lots of research to ensure a safe and efficient trip. Would you be able to show us what's the best way to travel from Heathrow airport to any hotel in London? via tube, bus, or private transpo? Also, is it better to get pocket wifi or sim card? Thank you!
@destinationwellknown
@destinationwellknown 3 күн бұрын
Thank you! How to get from Heathrow to your hotel in London would depend greatly on what area you're staying in... However, usually, the newly opened Elizabeth Line is the best mode of transport as you can get to Central London (stations like Paddington, Bond Street, Tottenham Court Road, Farringdon and Liverpool Street) and from there either walk to your hotel or get the tube to a station nearer to where you're staying. I'd get a SIM card instead of pocket wifi ✌️

I agree! I got to London a lot and did the touristy things gradually but I just say...don't take someone else's holiday. Don't let people discourage you from riding the Eye, seeing Picadilly Circus or going to the M&M and Lego stores. You may not stay LONG but if it's what your trip is planned for, you MUST do it. I agree, the stretch of Shrek etc is great for children. My only advice is that you don't have to do the Dungeon AND London Bridge Experience.

Very accurate regarding Paddington hotels. They can be very cheap, but you get what you pay for - extremely small rooms stuck in a time warp. That said, they serve a purpose and are ideal if you're a young traveller on a budget. If, however, you're a 'grown up' with a little more disposable income and are used to more creature comforts, pay a little more and look elsewhere.
