The best things to do—and the top things to avoid—in London. Plus, the best hotels, restaurants, and tips for a memorable vacation. All curated by a trusted Fodor’s writer based in the British capital.
There are 9 million people in London, and I’m proud to be one of them. As a first-generation Brit, I took on a tour guide role from a very young age, navigating the West End independently before I was even a teen. I’ve lived North-West, worked all over Central, and now reside in East London…and I’ve partied in every pocket in between. Now, I don’t have the stamina, I write guidebooks for people who do.
Think of me as a trusted friend you haven’t yet met, a face on social media you ping for local intel but block after getting what you want (hey, I don’t mind!). I’ll tell you where to relive Bridget Jones moments, help you avoid crap high teas, and let you tick off greats away from loop sightseeing bus stops. In short, here’s how to experience London like a seasoned queen.
