Are you struggling to create a budget for your London trip?

Maybe this sounds like you…

  • London uses a different currency, so I’m confused about how much everything will ACTUALLY cost me...
  • I’m not sure how much to budget for my food and drinks as I don’t know what everything costs in London.
  • I don’t know how much I should save up for this trip.
  • I’m trying to add up all of our trip costs but it’s taking me too long to make a spreadsheet that makes any sense.
  • I’m travelling on a tight budget, so I need budget-friendly recommendations for the city…

We TOTALLY understand. As a company founded and run by travellers, we know how daunting it can be to plan and budget for a trip in a foreign country that uses a different currency.

We too were frustrated by the generic budget advice you find online, which motivated us to want to create our own budget guide and tracker that adapts to everyone's budget situation and currency.

Very Useful Spending Guide!

The London Spending Guide is easy to use and a wonderful budget planner. In addition to a detailed budget calculator, it also includes a detailed expense tracking worksheet. This is very useful because, while you are on vacation, you can see when your spending exceeds budget and make adjustments. At the end of your trip, you can review your total budget versus actual spending which will help you create a better budget for future trips. I also love the trip savings plan. After you calculate your budget, the savings plan helps you determine the amount you need to set aside from each paycheck to fund your trip to London. Jess and the Love and London team did a wonderful job with this spending guide.

An amazing resource!

This guide helped us plan 5 days in London with ease. The recommendations and proximity planning really makes a world of difference for someone who is not familiar with the city at all. I would highly recommend this to anyone who's feeling overwhelmed or even just needs a little guidance on what to do and when.
