What travel writers say

London Gatwick is the world’s busiest single-runway airport. It’s located about 30 minutes from London and serves more than 200 destinations (more than any other UK airport) in 90 countries. Many people choose to fly in and out of London Gatwick as it serves a lot of discount airlines and flight tickets can be a bit cheaper than Heathrow Airport- even if it’s the same destination.

Hi! I’m Kiki, a California native, who left my career in corporate finance to become a world traveler.
England is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. While most travelers tend to stick to London (which is understandable as it’s a great city!), the rest of the region has a lot to offer and sees a fraction of the crowds. In fact, backpacking around England was one of the highlights of all my travels in Europe. England’s smaller cities, like Bath and Oxford, are both fascinating and culturally rich. (And, since they aren’t as crowded as London, they’re a bit cheaper too.)

Hi, I’m Nomadic Matt, a New York Times best-selling author of How to Travel the World on $50 a Day and Ten Years a Nomad, as well as the founder of this website!
With so much to offer travelers of all kinds, it’s no wonder that England is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. London itself sees around 30 million visitors each year and is high on the bucket list of many travelers. The city features some of England’s top attractions and many iconic sites, including Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. Beyond all the places you’ll likely recognize from The Crown, London is home to some of the top museums in the world. Art lovers will want to visit both Tate Britain, a bastion of classic art for over 120 years, and Tate Modern, home to some of the most exciting works of modern and contemporary art.

Depends where you go. If going into the centre of London I would recommend renting bikes - ebikes or Boris bikes. If you are travelling outside of London then a car is the go.

Be very careful where you park you car as the tariffs are set as to pay much more than it worth.

London is so culturally diverse and beautiful. The smaller streets took a bit of getting used to, but roundabouts are fun.
