I'm so glad I bought The Casual Tourist Guide to Central London. It's exactly what I needed to put together my trip itinerary and make the most of my time discovering the treasures of Central London.
The guide was a great starting point for us to create a perfect trip that checked all of our boxes.
We are planning a trip to London fall 2025. These guides will be so helpful in planning and experiencing the best vacation. Thank all of you for all your support
Loved the 6 day itinerary I purchased in addition to the budgeting and transport guides. It really helped us streamline our planning by location. We are very excited to move forward with our trip-also appreciated the recommendations included for food/drinks for different budgets. Its fantastic and the team has done a fabulous job. Everything is very helpful.
Thanks Jess and L&L team for the fantastic West London Guide….. especially loved Little Venice and Clifton Nurseries!
Truly wonderful information! Whenever possible, I love to travel like a local. I could not believe how helpful the guides and videos were in preparing for our trip. We avoided tourist traps and were able to pick our spots to explore and enjoy the city. I still overpacked a bit, as the weather was far nicer than anticipated, so some of my layers weren’t needed. However, the advice on recommended apps and navigating the city and various neighborhoods made for seamless travel and flawless visit. We weren’t always willing to dedicate an hour to a long queue, for some museums, but thanks to the guides we had several easy options to pivot towards and enjoy the city and beautiful weather. My favorite pro tips, were the use of my reusable coffee mug and water bottle and contactless navigation of the transport system. My friends were super impressed- especially since it was my first visit ever (but definitely not my last!) Thanks for the work you and your team do- it helped me fall in love with one of the world’s great cities!
It was great to have all of this information available on demand on my mobile phone. I liked the restaurant reviews that I could pull up depending where I was in the city. When my daughter was frantically looking for a bathroom, we found one quickly in St James park thanks to the guide. That alone was worth the price :). Thanks Jess & L+L crew !
It's a really useful itinerary for someone who is confused on what to choose in London. As a person who chose before what things to do, the itinerary helped combine those things and offered me more to combine with my visit to London.
A lot of hard work went into creating this guide! I’ve been to London several times but have found this most helpful in finding the gems and un-touristy spots. So looking to my trip!
Great checklist; covers London by season; has all the needed categories
We have our trip coming up soon, but so far the guide has been very helpful in planning. Thank you, Jess& team for trying to think of everything! So far, so good! London here we come!
The FaceBook group is great! More personal attention given & received. Thank you!!!
Excellent information in a very easy format. The digital POI tracker working with google maps is great. Bath room location will be a god send.
By avoiding all the expensive touristy stuff you find everywhere else, you are able to get some great and local tips and ideas. Which are actually practical and handy, and were you also can than further build on yourself.
For some someone who loves to explore and experience places which are a bit “off the beaten track”, these guides are refreshing by focusing on specific and local area’s. And gives you the real feeling of London.
Biggest tip is definitely the citymapper app. A must have together with your Love and London guide’s. Highly recommendable.
Already looking forward to the next trip soon.
If you are thinking about or planning to go to London, your next step is to go to the Love + London site! Their information is the latest and covers anything you might need or didn't know you did. With Love + London guides & itineraries you will feel like a local!
This really has helped us get our trip together! It brought a lot of peace of mind on how to make our trip great!
After deep-diving the internet to put together my own walking tours for a one-week visit, I opted to purchase a 6-day itinerary after watching hours of the Love and London YouTube channel. It was a game-changer. All the work was done for me, and all I had to do was read all that wonderful information to decide what I wanted. Check, check, check, boom, vacation planned!
If you are on the fence about purchasing one, let me give you a push. Order it, and order it early so you have time to digest all the information you receive for your money. You can thank me later (actually, thank the L&L gang. They did the hard work.)
I find it very user friendly and certainly will be helpful. I'm off to Australia soon bur when I get back I'll be heading to London for a visit...again. I thought I knew London but I've discovered some more activities and things to do. Cheers to Jess and the team.
I really think it's been a worthwhile investment on their part to create a subscription-based FB site. Eliminates the anonymous requests you see on many other travel FB sites and hopefully it focuses on those who invest in doing their travel research. Glad to have signed up and already seeing some of the positive messaging that's been posted.
The whole package is very professionally put together and the online map is user-friendly with clear installation guides, c/w great comms from the supplier. Also the claims to provide 'alternative' POI's from the norm are quite justified from what I've seen so far - so to summarise highly recommended all round.
Jess and the Love and London Team have produced a completely thorough and easy to read and understand Transport Guide for London. Anything you needed to know is here. Accompanying the Guide are video tutorials on how to use the Tube and the Bus. As someone who has used the Tube (although not the Bus), I can attest that everything was explained step by step. I learned a few more things, as I always do from Love and London. I can't recommend this guide highly enough. A++++++. Cheers!
I ordered this guide in preparation for my upcoming trip to London. I feel better having some knowledge about the transportation system ahead of time!
