| Attracting millions of visitors
every year, London is one of the most popular tourist
destinations in Europe. With so many unique sights, attractions
and locations, it can be difficult to choose between all the
different things to do and see. Preparing a full itinerary
before you set off for the capital can make sure that you make
the best of your trip.
Whether your visit is just for a
few days or a two week holiday, choosing in advance what sights
you want to see will ensure that you have plenty of time to do
them all. London is a huge city and, although it has excellent
public transport, its attractions can be a bus or tube ride away
from each other. Rather than darting back and forth, a much
easier way to plan your trip is to dedicate days for particular
activities. Have a sightseeing day to see Big Ben, Buckingham
Palace and Tower Bridge and then spend a bit longer at the
Museums or the Zoo the next day. This way you can fit everything
in, and you'll have a backup plan if the temperamental London
weather means you don't want to stand outside for too long.
Planning in advance can
also save money.
SmartSave offers 20 per cent discount vouchers which can be redeemed
against ticket admission prices. Make the most of your
sightseeing by taking in a Harry Potter or Jack the Ripper tour,
or take a trip down to Arsenal or Chelsea and enjoy a stadium
tour. Discounts can also be used against popular attractions
like London Dungeon and Ripley's Believe It or Not. London has
something for everyone, and with small families or groups the
discounts can really make a big difference when purchasing
tickets.
London is also home to some of
the finest restaurants and pubs in the country. Celebrity chefs
like Michel Roux, Marco Pierre White and Gordon Ramsay all have
restaurants in the city. However, if you don't want to break the
bank dining at these places, there are many fine exotic and
traditional restaurants that offer memorable dining experiences.
Again, discount vouchers can be
used to take off 20 percent off the final bill in some supported
restaurants and cafes, so plan in advance and book reservations
to take advantage of any offers.
Of course, a visit to London
would not be complete without taking in a show at the West End.
Enjoy discounts on some of the most popular plays such as
Chicago, The Woman in Black and Les Miserables through
SmartSave. Its as simple as choosing a performance and booking online.
London is a beautiful city with
so much to offer first-time tourists and regular visitors. It's
important to do a bit of research before you visit and try and
decide what you want to see and do when you get there. This way,
you can experience the best of the city in plenty of time and at
much cheaper prices. |
