RSSYou Can Visit London On A Budget
Apr 18
Many of us are deterred from visiting London because it is one of the most expensive cities in the world. Yet there are plenty of things that you can do and see which won’t cost you an arm or a leg. In this article we take a look at some of the things to do and see when you visit London on a budget.
Shows
If you would like to take in one of the many that are on at the city’s various theatres to save yourself some money we would recommend you purchase them before you take your trip. Not only will this reduce the cost but you won’t be faced with the hassle of having to stand in queues. Plus if you intend to visit London with a group of friends by purchasing say 10 tickets or more could actually result in you saving even more money.
Attractions
Most of the attractions in London such as the zoo and aquarium require you to pay an entry fee. However there are plenty of other attractions in the city that you can visit that cost nothing. Nearly every one of the city’s major museums such as the Museum of London and the Albert & Victoria don’t charge an entry fee. Plus also visits to Selfridges, Harrods and Hamley’s will not cost you anything. You don’t need to spend money in these shops if you don’t have to but be wary if visiting Hamleys with kids as they are likely to start asking for everything they see on display.
Food
When visiting London on a budget there are plenty of wonderful places to have a meal that aren’t that expensive. Of course you could visit the usual fast food outlets but there are plenty of other great places to eat. We would recommend that you try out some of the many pubs dotted around the city which offer good quality food at great prices. Plus head for some of the roads that lead away from the more popular parts of the city and you are likely to find some really great cafes.
Parks
The city of London has been called the greenest capital in the world due to the number of parks that are located within its boundaries. These are not only being enjoyed by visitors to the city but those who live and work in it. All parks within London are open throughout the year and have plenty of space that allows you the opportunity to relax and unwind. The parks we would recommend you visit on a trip to London on a budget are St James’s, Regents and Hyde Park. All of these have plenty of things to do and see and a number of activities that will help to keep the kids happy.
