]]> You know what they say—it is never a good time to visit London, UK, if you hate rain. Because the chances are that regardless of the time of the year you visit, you’ll get to experience it. But rain aside, here is when you should plan your visit to London.

Best Weather and Most Events: Between June and August

If you want to experience as little rain as possible, then the summertime should be your pick. London has the best weather between June and August, while this time of the year will also afford you quite a lot of activities. The city is buzzing with life, with festivals and cultural events happening all around. The downside is that London is the most crowded during these months.

Best Exploring: September Through October, April Through May

Interested in exploring London and seeing everything it has to offer? Then, head there in early fall or spring. The weather can get unpredictable, but you will get plenty of dry weather. Additionally, there won’t be many tourists flooding the city, allowing you to properly enjoy the city’s most famous tourist attractions at your own pace.

Best Prices: January

The New Year celebration aside, January might be the most affordable month for visitors in London. The holiday season is over, and the temperatures are getting low, while the rain is becoming an everyday occurrence. This means there are not many people coming and going, bringing the prices of accommodation and flights significantly down. The experience might not be ideal, but there are still plenty of fun things to do indoors when the time gets really rough.

]]> London, UK, is one of those cities where you can get a different experience based on the approach you take. You’ll have a great time if you just hit the tourist attractions and engage in tourist activities. But you can also have an even better time if you do what locals do.

 Get Some Fish & Chips

There is a reason why fish & chips are so popular across the UK: they are delicious and comforting. Skip going to a restaurant one night and get that greasy, paper-wrapped order of fish & chips from the nearby food joint. Pair it with some beer and see what all the fuss is about.

Spend a Relaxing Day at Primrose Hill

Forget about the London Eye and other panoramic platforms in London. If you want to enjoy a great view of the city, head to Primrose Hill. This public park is bellowed by locals because it offers stunning panoramic views for free, and there are also so many other things to do here. From a relaxing picnic on pristine green spaces to opportunities for outdoor activities, Primrose Hill really has it all.

Shop at Brick Lane Market

Forget about trendy stores and big shopping malls. If you really want a true London shopping experience, head to Brick Lane Market. You’ll find all sorts of fashion items and accessories for cheap, alongside antiquities, crafts, household items, and much more. 

Ride The Tube

Forget about buses and taxis while you are in London. Sure, they look good, but they are anything but efficient or cheap. Instead, ride the subway, or “The Tube,” as locals call it. It is the fastest and cheapest way to get from point A to point B and gives you a great insight into the everyday life of Londoners.

British Museum

Open Monday to Sunday from 10 am until 5 pm, the British Museum houses some of the greatest treasures uncovered in human history.

Queen’s House

Located in the affluent London borough of Greenwich, the Queen’s House is an internationally acclaimed 16th century mansion that houses some of the finest architecture and artwork that the UK has to offer.

The Queen’s House is open daily from 10 am until 5 pm and is free to enter.

Richmond Park

Here’s one for nature lovers.

]]> London’s Heathrow Airport, the main gate to London from the rest of the world, is located 15 miles west of Central London and is one of the busiest airports on Earth. It can seem like a monumental task to get from the airport to the center of the city, but the reality is that you have plentiful options for getting there.

Here are your best bets for getting from Heathrow to the center of London.

Heathrow Express Train

The Heathrow Express Train is probably the fastest and most direct way to get from Heathrow to Central London. With no intermediate stops except at Terminals 2 and 3, it takes travelers only 15 to 20 minutes to get to Paddington Station in the heart of London.

Piccadilly Line (London Underground)

If you are looking for a metro option that’s a little less expensive than the train, you can take the Piccadilly Line from the airport to the Piccadilly Circus tube station in the heart of the city. It also provides connections to a load of other metro lines.

National Express Coach

Not a fan of the metro or trains? You can also take a National Express coach from the airport to the center of the city and vice versa for as little as 10 pounds! It’s another great option for Heathrow to central London connections.
