  • Visiting London in Sept 2019 Will visit Liverpool, lunch at Penny lane, also Abby Rd and apple records (Beatle fan). Kensington palace. Any off beat places(outside of tourism suggestions) that are great to visit. I want to mingle with the locals.

    Answer Report Abuse
    • You can visit Portobello Road Market for quirky, vintage shopping. Try to find tiny alleys in Neal’s Yard where eateries are ideal for a leisurely breakfast. I have also heard a lot about special tours arranged by the London Transport Museum where they take you to historic metro stations underground that are no longer in use. These underground places are usually not open to the public and can be visited only with the museum tour.

    • what about renting a car? That's what we plan

    • You can use public transport to travel from Heathrow airport to London. The Heathrow Express is a good option to consider which will take around 15-20 mins to reach from the airport to London Paddington. TfL Rail services is another transfer service you can avail. You can also take the tube which goes from the Piccadilly line or take the National Express if you wish to travel by coach. N9 night bus is another way of traveling between the airport and London. Alternatively, various taxis, both private and black ones are available at the airport itself that can help you reach London. I am not sure but I think Uber is also available for the same route.

  • My family (9 adults and 7 kids) is coming to London in June. We will spend two days visiting attractions as a family, then everyone has two days on their own. Any suggestions?

    Answer Report Abuse
    • If you have 2 days to see London's attractions, I would suggest you be at the city center of London. Most of the attractions are located around it and you can also take a walking tour with your family. Do see the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, and Kensington Palace. Rest two days, you can visit the places of your choice.
