American reacts to the Biggest Tourist Traps in London

[@charliecosta3971]

There is a thing called a coach from Stansted!!! Walter does my head in and thinks he knows the ins and outs and he doesn't

[@xYonowaaru]

Which with some flights brings you directly into rush hour. Safed me 2 Pounds, spent hours on the coach. I definitely prefer the Stansted Express.

The Tower of London is brilliant. So much to see and the Beefeater tours are so funny and informative.

Here is a tip for you American travellers to the U.K. If you want to exchange money from US dollars to British pounds, then go to a Post Office. You will not get ripped off there.

[@Psi-Storm]

You can use a regular ATM, the only one ripping you off is your own credit card company, which are probably billing you 3% extra for the foreign exchange, if you have the wrong card.

[@ag4871]

​@@Psi-StormDo be careful, though. If an ATM gives you the option to convert to local currency TURN IT DOWN as the ATM will charge a ripoff rate and fee for the privilege of doing what your own bank is going to do anyway. Another goody is when the ATM gives you 2 choices at the start: "Cash and balance" or "other" - always take "other" as you'll be charged for the blink-and-you'll-miss-it display of the balance if you take the former option. "Other" lets you withdraw cash without the balance fee.

[@sc3pt1c4L]

Definitely see the British Museum - for free, and the Victoria and Albert museum, also free. HMS Belfast is pretty good, but involves a lot of ladder type stairs - insist on not giving the charity part in the ticket price, tower of London and crown jewels is worth it in my opinion, and definietly do a Thames river cruise, but travel by tube as much as possible, it is an experience in itself.

[@stirlingmoss4621]

this is where doing your research ahead of a visit is essential. For a free panoramic view of London, visit the Sky Garden but book ahead or pay for the Shard.

[@ag4871]

There are bars near the top of the shard. I believe there is a cover charge but it's cheaper than buying a ticket to the viewing gallery. As you say, though, Sky Garden is the way to go.

Speaking of Abbey Road. A tip for tourists: Abbey Road DLR station is NOT on the Abbey Road with the famous zebra crossing. Nearest tube station for that is St. John's Wood on the Jubilee (grey) line. Journey planners will tend to send you to the station, not the crossing.

Inner London and The City are the literal 'clickbait' draws for so many tourists. There are more areas to London than those more famous places.

However we have plenty of sites to see, like Greenwich: The Royal Observatory, The Cutty Sark, & Greenwich Foot Tunnel, Beckenham Place Park, Crystal Palace Park, Bromley: 'The Glades' Shopping Centre, ... Hampstead Heath, Notting Hill, and in inner London, Green Park, Hyde Park, St.James' Park... & Shopping: in Hamleys Toy Store in Regent Street, (various well-known high street shops in Oxford Street), Double Decker buses / Open Top Buses, (But...

There are so many great places in London which are either free or there are ways to see them free. The National Gallery, British Museum, Natural History Museum, Changing the Guard, most medieval churches in the City, Tate Modern, Science Museum, many of the grounds of places such as Hampton Court, Kensington Palace, Greenwich, attending services at St Paul's or Westminster Abbey, observing Parliament debates, etc. Some require booking in advance, but cost nothing. Go to Harrods, Fortnum's, you needn't buy anything, and the same is true of Battersey Power Station centre, and countless famous sites, from Carnaby St to Covent Garden to Borough Market, to..... Last time I took my grandsons to the UK, we visited London for four days. We paid an admission fee only once, to see Churchill's War Rooms.

[@marieparker3822]

There are lots of free things - museums, art galleries, parks, historical sites. Use public transport, and get a travel card that suits your stay - a week, a month, how many zones (I recommend zones 1, 2 and 3 only - there are 8 zones starting fron the central zone 1). Films: the British Film Institute on the South Bank is worth a visit if you are a film buff. They have four screens and a studio where you can go in and choose to see any film they have in stock (a lot) in a private cubicle with earphones - for free. They also have a shop full of film books and a restaurant.

[@CriticalityIncident]

I can't believe he failed to mention Sky Garden. You get a great view of London and it's free.

There's so much to see for free in london. You just have to know where to go. There's the Shakespeare theatre the only thatched building allowed in london. Many shows that need an audience are free. that's the ones that are on tv each week, for instance. Churches, monuments, art galleries, and museums are mostly free. There's the Houses of Parliament you can sit in the overhead seats and watch debates for free. All the parks are free. Not all restaurants are expensive after all, the thousands of workers need to eat lunch every day. They go to good cheap places. The problem is tourists are easy to spot and then get rippped off.

Fly to LHR (London Heathrow Airport) every time imo and then take either the Heathrow Express which gets you into central London in 15 minutes for £20 or the Elizabeth Line (tube) which takes 45 minutes and costs £12.80 but has the advantage that it stops at multiple central London stations which may get you closer to where you want to be.

London Eye is definitely worth it, especially if you have kids. I’m a Londoner and I’ve been on it about 6 times, all as a kid, and it was great. Having said that, I was not the one who paid haha.

[@cindz4618]

I would skip the London eye. The tower of London is worth it because it's historical ( built by William the Conquerer) but you may have to queue early.most museums are free. The Globe Theatre - reconstruction of Shakespeares original is worth looking into - not necessary to see a play - although I would, but I love Shakespeare. Madame Tussauds is quite expensive, but kids love it. Strawberry fields original is in Liverpool by the way...As regards food - if you are willing to get some stuff from a supermarket you can save some money and get dinner out- food in London is quite expensive and not always best quality. I think that Oxford Street is overated nowadays. Excursions to other areas of England relatively nearby by US standards might be worth it for a more authentic feel. Another way to get a feel for London without walking too much is to take a short river boat trip on the Thames to see some things from the river. ( There are a choice of ones of different duration.

Next point - All locals know where to enjoy all the views without getting involved in any tourist rip-off activity, and ESPECIALLY with regards to food - half price and better quality.!!!!!!!

I hate to say this, because usually I like Wolter's videos, but as a German who has been to London many times, I have to say that most of the things he says in that video are just BS. How can visiting Piccadilly Circus be a scam if you don't have to pay money to see it? Sure, it can be disappointing because you may thought it's more spectacular, but you can say the same about pretty much every sight in any big cit around the world. If you take one of those rickshaw rides, it's your own fault, everybody knows you will end up paying more than you got told before, there are subways and buses at every corner, just get an Oyster card and you're fine. Also, most of the famous museums and sights are free, and you can't put a price tag on things like Abbey Road, or say it's worth it or not. For one person it's just a normal pedestrian crossing, for a die hard Beatles fan, it will totally make his/her day. The same goes for all the Harry Potter filming locations and other famous places from movies or shows.

The figure of £300 he mentiones, was the cost of the cheap flight plus the taxi ride. He's also mixing between US dollars and pound here in the sentence before, so take it with a grain of salt anyway.

The trolley at Kings Cross was originally free, but after it started becoming crowded with so many people turning up they eventually monetised it.

But the renumbering never happened, so it is actually between platforms 8 and 9.

A trap but a funny one😂

[@danielvermeer5079]

8 quid for a bot o' wa'er at Club Al Anon off Piccadilly Circus in Oct 2007. Ehh. No thank you.

London is the tourist trap, the rest of the UK has them but there's so much for free and probably quiet and very enjoyable. Still, I have done them myself.😊

Why does this guy bother going anywhere

[@joshualiley]

If you want to go to some of the tourist traps (will require a bit of a trip round the UK, but if that's what you're doing it's worth it), buy a Merlin pass. They are expensive but if you plan to go to a lot of the also overpriced tourist experiences, the annual pass will eventually pay off even on a short trip. A Merlin pass covers: London: The London Eye Madame Tussauds Shrek's adventure London Just outside of London: Chessington World of Adventures (theme park) Thorpe Park (theme park) Legoland Windsor Midlands: Cadbury's World Warwick Castle Alton Towers (theme park) Legoland Discovery Centre Birmingham Blackpool: Blackpool Tower Peter Rabbit: explore and play Various locations: Sea life centre (includes London, Blackpool and the Midlands) The Dungeons (includes London and Blackpool) Obviously it doesn't cover everything, but you probably only need to visit 1 of the theme parks, go on the London eye and do one of the other more expensive things (like Legoland or Warwick Castle) and you'll get your money back without doing some of the cheaper things. You can do that without going too far outside of London (Thorpe Park, London Eye, Legoland Windsor, Madame Tussauds, London Dungeons, Sea life centre), and a pretty decent trip at that. If you do those and then go to somewhere like Warwick Castle or the Blackpool Tower on a road trip and you're getting good value

Liverpool would be cheaper if you like the Beatles

And see the REAL Strawberry Fields etc...

I think if I ever get to England, I will fly into Manchester and stay there. There seems to be a quite a rail system hub there so possible to travel by train or take a town car to spots I want to see.

I've been on the London Eye... I don't recall it costing anything. If it cost $50 there's no way I would have done it.

London is very expensive , there are a lot of better attractions and places to visit around the Country .
