Meet Jess Dante, the founder of Love and London.

Over a decade ago, she moved from New York to London, initially for love, although that's a long story. After settling in London, she started assisting people with their visits to her new home, which she had been exploring intently. She began a YouTube channel and started helping her growing audience of future London tourists.

Jess noticed that her followers had a hard time planning their own trip to London. Using her knowledge of the city, she decided to start the Love and London shop to help them out. Over the years, we have expanded our product range to include multi-day itineraries, guides, budget sheets, and more. And soon, we will be expanding our expertise to Paris as well 😉

Jess and the entire Love and London team take pride in helping people have a stress-free trip they deserve and have been planning for years. We have assisted over 8,000 people with our tried-and-tested London plans and boast a 4.8-star rating in our store.
