Watch out in London

Fake charity clipboard — Do not stop or sign anything. Keep walking, keep your bag closed and in front, and give to registered charities through official channels only.

Three-cup shell game — Never play and never bet. It is a coordinated con with lookouts and pickpockets, so simply move on if you see a crowd gathered around one.

Unlicensed minicab overcharge — Only take a metered black cab from the street or a rank, or a car booked through a licensed app in advance. Never get into a car that approaches you touting for business.

Taste it here

The must-try local dishes, sweets and fruits — including the exotic ones you won't find back home.

Dish

Fish and chips

Battered, deep-fried white fish with thick-cut chips, doused in salt and malt vinegar, widely considered Britain's national dish and best eaten straight from the paper.

Dish

Full English breakfast

A hearty plate of bacon, eggs, sausages, baked beans, grilled tomato and toast, the classic way to start a day of sightseeing at a cafe or pub.

Dish

Sunday roast

Roast meat with potatoes, vegetables, gravy and a puffed-up Yorkshire pudding, a weekly pub tradition worth booking ahead for, especially on a cold weekend.

Must-try

Afternoon tea

Finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, and dainty cakes served over tea, a quintessentially English ritual and a memorable way to spend an afternoon.

See all 5 dishes

Dish

Jellied eels

Chunks of eel set in their own savoury jelly, an old East End delicacy still served at historic pie shops; it wobbles alarmingly but is a genuinely novel taste for adventurous visitors.

Πώς να πάτε και να κινηθείτε

Πραγματικές τιμές, όχι τιμές για τουρίστες.

Πώς να πάω εκεί

Underground from Heathrow 1 ώ.5–9 $

The Piccadilly line runs directly from Heathrow into central London. It is the cheapest rail option, though slower with many stops. Pay with Oyster or contactless.

Heathrow Express train 20 λ.25–37 $

A fast non-stop train from Heathrow to Paddington in about fifteen minutes. The quickest option but the most expensive rail link, so book online for a lower fare.

Airport taxi 1 ώ.60–100 $

Door-to-door but easily the priciest choice, and slow in traffic. Use only the official rank or a pre-booked licensed car, never a driver touting inside the terminal.

Live directions & times in MapsReal routes from the airport or your spot — opens Google Maps

Πώς να κινηθώ

The Underground (Tube)3–6 $

The fast, extensive metro is the backbone of getting around. Tap in and out with Oyster or contactless for capped daily fares. Avoid the busiest rush-hour crush if you can.

Red buses2–3 $

The iconic double-decker buses are cheap and scenic, with a low flat fare and a daily cap. Buses do not take cash, so use Oyster or contactless only.

Walking the centre

Central districts are compact and often quicker on foot than by Tube for short hops. Remember traffic drives on the left, so look right first when crossing.

Καλύτερη εποχή για επίσκεψη

Μαΐου–Σεπτεμβρίου

Late spring to early autumn (May to September) brings the mildest, longest days and the liveliest parks, festivals and outdoor life, though it is also the busiest and dearest. Winter is cold, grey and dark early but quieter, with festive lights and lower hotel prices.

Ασφάλεια

ΠροσοχήPickpocketing and phone snatching happen in crowded spots like the Underground, Oxford Street, markets and tourist squares. Keep bags zipped and in front, and never leave a phone on a cafe table by the pavement.

ΠροσοχήTraffic drives on the left, so look right first when crossing and use the painted reminders at kerbs. Watch for cyclists and scooters in bus and cycle lanes as well as cars.

ΠροσοχήLate at night use only licensed black cabs or a pre-booked app car, and avoid unlit shortcuts. Night buses and, on some nights, Night Tube services are safe and cheap alternatives.

Κρυμμένα κοσμήματα

Ride a normal red double-decker along a scenic route such as the number 15 for a cheap sightseeing tour past major landmarks.

Visit the great national museums and galleries, which are free, and see world-class art and history without a ticket.

Explore markets like Borough for food or Columbia Road for flowers on the right day for a local weekend feel away from the crowds.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις

How many days should I spend in London?

Four to five days lets you cover the main sights, a couple of museums and one or two neighbourhoods at a comfortable pace, with time for markets, parks and a show.

Do I need an Oyster card, or can I use a bank card?

Are London's museums really free?

Yes. The permanent collections of the major national museums and galleries, including the British Museum, are free to enter. Only special temporary exhibitions charge admission.

Is tap water safe to drink?

Yes, London tap water is safe and good to drink. Bring a refillable bottle and use the growing number of public refill points to save money.

Is London safe for tourists?

London is generally safe, with the main risks being pickpocketing and phone theft in crowds. Stay aware in busy spots, use licensed transport at night, and normal city caution is enough.
