Why London & England for your vacation

London layers 2,000 years of history over one of the most exciting modern cities on earth. You can watch the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace in the morning, see the Rosetta Stone at the British Museum after lunch, eat your way through Borough Market and still make a 7:30 curtain in the West End. Most major museums have no admission charge and the Underground goes everywhere. England beyond the capital is compact: Georgian Bath, prehistoric Stonehenge, honey-stone Cotswold villages, the colleges of Oxford and Cambridge and the medieval walls of York are all day trips or easy overnights by train.

What's included in a London & England package

Every package is tailored to your dates and interests. A typical London vacation package includes:

  • Round-trip flights on major airlines from your US gateway to Heathrow (LHR), Gatwick (LGW) or Stansted (STN)
  • A centrally located hotel — well-known hotel brands and independent townhouse properties — with breakfast included where offered
  • Airport transfers by private car, or rail tickets into central London
  • Timed-entry tickets for the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and the London Eye, plus a Thames cruise
  • West End theatre seats booked in advance for the show you want
  • Guided day trips: Windsor Castle, Stonehenge and Bath, the Cotswolds, Oxford, Cambridge or Stratford-upon-Avon
  • Optional add-ons: York, the Lake District, Liverpool, Cornwall, or Edinburgh by rail in about 4.5 hours; a rental car for the countryside (remember cars drive on the left)

Best time to visit London & England

May through September is the best window: the longest days, with light until after 9 p.m. in June, parks in full leaf and outdoor theatre. April and October are shoulder months with mild temperatures and fewer visitors. December is festive, with Christmas lights along Oxford Street and the South Bank, ice rinks, markets and carol services, although days are short. January through March brings the shortest days, drizzle and the quietest museums and theatres. The UK keeps GMT in winter and British Summer Time from late March to late October, five hours ahead of US Eastern.

Where to stay: areas and resort styles

Westminster puts Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace on your doorstep. The South Bank is riverside and cultural, with the Tate Modern and the Globe. Covent Garden and Soho are the heart of theatreland, dining and nightlife. Kensington and South Kensington are elegant and residential, close to Hyde Park and the museums on Exhibition Road, and a favorite for families. Mayfair holds the grand five-star hotels; Bloomsbury is literary and quiet beside the British Museum; Shoreditch is creative and edgy; Notting Hill is pastel townhouses and market streets; Greenwich is a village-like riverside base with the observatory and the meridian. Outside London, choose a Georgian townhouse hotel in Bath, a Cotswold coaching inn, a Lake District country house or a Cornish clifftop hotel; well-known hotel brands and independent inns are both available.

Things to do in London & England

  • Tower of London — the fortress, the ravens and the coronation regalia, best first thing in the morning
  • Buckingham Palace — the Changing of the Guard, and the State Rooms in summer
  • British Museum, National Gallery, Tate Modern and the Natural History Museum — all without an admission charge
  • West End theatre — long-running musicals and new plays, matinee or evening
  • Thames cruise — Westminster to Greenwich past the Tower and Tower Bridge
  • Borough Market and a traditional pub lunch
  • Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens and Kew Gardens
  • Windsor Castle — the oldest occupied castle in the world, under an hour from London
  • Bath and Stonehenge — the Roman Baths, Georgian crescents and the stone circle in one day
  • The Cotswolds, Oxford, Cambridge and Stratford-upon-Avon — villages, colleges and Shakespeare's birthplace

Getting there from the US

Nonstop flights from East Coast gateways such as New York, Boston, Washington, Miami and Atlanta reach London in roughly 6.5 to 7.5 hours; from the West Coast plan on roughly 10 to 11 hours. Most departures are overnight, landing at Heathrow mid-morning, from where the Heathrow Express reaches Paddington in about 15 minutes and the Elizabeth line runs straight through the center. US passport holders do not need a visa for tourist visits of up to six months, but must obtain an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) online before travel; verify current requirements before you go. The UK is not part of the Schengen area, so it does not count against your Schengen days. The currency is the pound sterling (GBP), and contactless cards work on the Underground, buses and almost every shop.

Who this package suits

Couples and honeymooners: a townhouse hotel in Kensington, a West End show and a Cotswolds inn make an easy romantic week. Families: the Tower, the dinosaurs at the Natural History Museum, the London Eye and a film-studio tour day keep children busy. Seniors: private transfers, elevator-served hotels and coach day trips keep the pace comfortable; see our senior travel reservations. Groups: theatre blocks, private guides and coach tours for reunions and clubs; start with group travel flights. Solo travelers: London is safe, walkable and easy to navigate. For a lie-flat overnight, ask about business class or first class fares.

London & England Vacation Packages: frequently asked questions

May through September offers the longest days, warmest weather and the fullest calendar of events, with June and September the sweet spot for light and crowds. April and October are quieter shoulder months. December is festive but dark by 4 p.m., and January through March is the quietest and dampest stretch.

Nonstop flights from East Coast gateways such as New York, Boston, Washington, Miami and Atlanta take roughly 6.5 to 7.5 hours. From the West Coast expect roughly 10 to 11 hours nonstop. Most flights leave in the evening and land at Heathrow or Gatwick the next morning.

US passport holders do not need a visa for tourist visits of up to six months, but an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) must be obtained online before travel. The UK is not part of the Schengen area, so it does not count toward your 90 Schengen days. Verify current requirements before you go.

London is not an all-inclusive destination. Packages typically pair a hotel with breakfast included, airport transfers, attraction tickets, theatre seats and day trips, leaving lunches and dinners open for pubs and restaurants. Country-house hotels in the Cotswolds or Lake District sometimes offer dinner-inclusive rates your expert can add.

Yes. The Tower of London, the dinosaurs at the Natural History Museum, the London Eye, Thames boats, red buses and the film-studio tour outside the city all work well for children. Many museums are without admission charge, and family rooms or apartments are easy to arrange in Kensington or Bloomsbury.

Very much so. There is no language barrier, and we arrange private transfers, hotels with elevators, low-floor rooms, hop-on sightseeing buses and coach day trips that cover Windsor, Bath and Stonehenge without much walking. Not every Underground station has elevators, so we plan around that. Ask about senior travel reservations.

London is a safe city with low violent crime. Take normal precautions against pickpockets on the Underground and in crowded areas such as Oxford Street and Camden Market, watch for phone snatching on busy streets, and use licensed black cabs or app-based rides at night. Check current US State Department guidance before departure.

The UK uses the pound sterling. Contactless cards work everywhere, including the Underground and buses, so there is little need for cash. Restaurants often add a 12.5 percent service charge; if not, 10 to 15 percent is customary. Tipping is not expected in pubs, and taxi fares are usually rounded up.

Four to eight months ahead is ideal for summer, Christmas week and any trip built around a specific West End show, when well-located hotels and lie-flat cabins sell out first. Popular shows and the film-studio tour book out weeks ahead. Winter trips can often be arranged on shorter notice.

Call Fond Travels at +1 (323) 800 6001 any time, day or night, and tell a real travel expert your dates, home airport and how much of Britain you want to see. You will receive a written itinerary covering flights, hotels, rail, transfers, theatre and tours, then confirm by phone.
