Five Ways to Spruce Your London Visit

Create your tour

London’s vast public transport system allows for a lot of flexibility when travelling. It can also be utilised as a cheap and personalised tour! If you spend a bit of time studying bus routes and landmarks, you can create your tour, getting on and off to explore as you please. If you’re a cinema fanatic, route 24 takes you along a few locations you may recognise from famous films.

Route 11 and 15 go straight through the most iconic areas of London if you want to tick off the big spots off your tourism list. If a boozy tour is more your thing, route 9 hits a lot of highly-rated bars and pubs. The first route ever created was route 205, so why not hit that up before taking route 100 along the older cobbled streets of London. If you want a peek at a life of luxury, take route 74. Or, if you want to take in the grandeur of The Thames, hope on route RV1.

Get the London look

You’re in one of the fashion capitals of the world, so treat yourself to a shopping spree! London is well known for its vast array of designer shops and outlets. One must-visit shopping destination is Aquascutum – here you will find designer clothing at bargain prices. London’s high-street shopping options also offer a great day out, so head down to London Designer Outlet for some retail therapy.

Accommodation

With so many things to do, you’ll want to have your energy levels up and your mind well-rested as you start you day. Find somewhere to stay that you love, and you’ll go into the city each day feeling rejuvenated ready to make the most of it. Needless to say, there are a lot of options for accommodation in London. If you really want to spruce up your trip and ensure you make the most of it, look into the Luxury London Apartments on offer – they’ll really make your trip that extra bit special.
