Limited time left to get the 3-Day London Itinerary 2020 before it goes away. Order now!
Are you struggling to create a London itinerary that actually makes sense?
Take the guess work out of it with an itinerary created by a Londoner.
I get it, and you’re not alone if you feel stressed… I hear it from our community all the time. There’s so much choice for things to do and see in London, with the added fact that the city is HUGE and it’s hard to plan what you can realistically do in one day without spending hours going back and forth across the city…
With my 3-Day London Itinerary, I make it so easy for you to explore London during your first three days here, that you’ll be amazed when you look back and think about how much you got accomplished in such a short amount of time, without feeling exhausted afterwards.
How’s this different from those “free” internet itineraries?
Besides saving you hours and hours of your valuable time you’d normally spend researching and planning, you get…
1.
The Digital Map
This itinerary isn’t just a PDF guide telling you where to go, but also includes a handy Digital Map for your phone, making it incredibly easy to know where you need to go each moment of the three days when you’re out and about in London.
2.
Flexibility
The 90+ page itinerary gives you a ton of varied options, and the Digital Map makes it easy to get back on track if you veer off, with its built-in Get Directions function, so you can rest assured you won’t ever get lost or flustered.
3.
Local Insight
Because I’ve lived in London for years, I know which major sites are realistically close enough to each other to see in one day. I also know all of the hidden gems to check out nearby the world-famous sites… I give you a local experience tied in with the London “biggies.”
…and your purchase isn’t just about YOU.
While 10% of your itinerary purchase has always gone to the charity of the month, we’re now doing more.
£10 of your purchase will be donated directly to The Trussell Trust, a charity that is helping keep many people from going hungry around the UK right now. Your £10 donation is enough to keep one family from going hungry tonight.
To find out more about how itinerary purchases support local causes, head to the bottom of the page.
What to expect…
Each day, the points of interest will be grouped together so that all sites and suggestions are within walking distance, or a short tube or bus ride, saving you time, energy, and money.
Each day includes:
2-5 major London sites (you choose only what you want to do)
Multiple, varied recommendations for breakfast, lunch and dinner/drinks, including local pubs and lovely afternoon tea spots.
Off-the-beaten-track suggestions, so you can feel like you’re experiencing the city like you live here
Tips that only Londoners would know, like where to find nearby public bathrooms, great photos spots, secret bars, the best dishes to order etc.

Your purchase makes a difference.
Since 2019, 10% of itinerary purchases have been donated to the charity of the month, to give to people and projects that need assistance in London and the UK.
Since June, we’ve upped it to £10 of your purchase, which will go to The Trussell Trust, which helps feed the UK’s hungry, which, sadly, is now a much larger number than just a few months ago.
£10 helps feed a family for one night, so your purchase makes a significant difference. Thank you.
In June and July, we donated £80 to The Trussell Trust.
In May, for both April and May sales, we donated £76.20 to AgeUK, a charity that helps the vulnerable elderly. Their services are needed more than ever during the COVID crisis while the UK is on lockdown.
In March, we donated £162 to SmartWorks, a charity that helps vulnerable women in London to prepare for job interviews with appropriate clothing and training.
In January and February, we donated £1,015.50 to Centrepoint, a charity that helps the UK’s young homeless.
We’re proud to say that in 2019, we donated £2,450 to various UK charities, fuelled by our community’s purchases.
3-Day Itinerary FAQs
“How is this itinerary different from what’s online or in the bookstore?”
Well, I’ve never seen any itinerary that includes a digital map for your phone, which allows you to get real-time transportation and walking directions as well as makes it super easy to follow the itinerary. Also, many “itineraries” you can find online are created by people who’ve only visited London, not LIVED here. They aren’t able to provide alternative food options for diet restricts, public toilets along the route, or more crucially, tips that only someone who has done this route herself for years would know.
“Why do you charge money for this?”
There are a couple of reasons. It took weeks to create the itinerary, starting with hours of researching and planning the perfect route, to multiple days of on-the-ground testing, to writing the 90+ page guide and creating the map. If I didn’t charge for the itinerary, I simply couldn’t provide it to our community as it takes up so much time to create. I also spend anywhere from £25-200 per week trying out new things around London, some of which is included in the itinerary, some of which is not worthy. Of course, all of those meals, drinks, and tickets cost a lot of money. But by me testing them out and only telling you about the best, you won’t have to waste your time and money too, because only the best of the best go in my guides.
If I save you from one not-so-good moderately-priced meal, you’ve already paid yourself back for your purchase, never mind the hours and hours of research and planning you won’t have to do yourself.
“How much walking and public transportation is involved each day?”
The itinerary was made with the intention that users would never need to get on public transportation because the days are laid out in small enough areas. Walking distance will vary greatly by the user, and what you choose to do or not do, but the Digital Map will show you how much walking you might end up doing.
There are some points at which you can hop on a bus or a taxi if you’re tired. I’ve pointed this out in the itinerary, and it’s also easy to figure out on your own via the Digital Map.
“I’m on a serious budget. Will this work for me?”
Yes! Just about all of the attractions included in the itinerary are either free or can be experienced “as a taste” from the outside, therefore there’s no need to buy entrance tickets if that’s not in your budget. I’ve also included budget-friendly food options (they’re the ones marked with a single “£”) or if you don’t want to spend money on food, just bring your own and only follow the sightseeing elements of the itinerary.
“How far in advance should I buy this for my trip?”
Buy it at least a week in advance, if you can. I recommend reading over the PDF before you arrive to London, so you can familiarise yourself with my recommendations, and some attractions and restaurants require advance booking. It also can take up to five business days for the Digital Map to be added to your phone, but usually just takes one business day.
I will update the itinerary for 2021 in mid-January 2021, so if you’re visiting after then, don’t buy it just yet, as you’ll want the updated version.
What happens if I buy the 2020 itinerary but my trip gets postponed to 2021?
No problem! Once the 2021 version of the itinerary is available (estimated to be February 2021) just get in touch to let us know when in 2021 your trip is rescheduled for, and we’ll give you the updated version of the itinerary for free.
“Do I need data on my phone to be able to use the Digital Map on the go in London?”
It absolutely works best when you have it. It will also allow you to get walking directions when needed, or transport directions when you’re planning to head back to your hotel once the day is done. In the guide I’ve included a list of ways to have data on your phone so you can stay connected.
“Can I share the PDF and map with anyone? ”
One purchase of the itinerary includes the PDF, which can be downloaded up to three times onto your various devices, and one Digital Map. You’re certainly allowed to pass your device to your travel partners, but it can’t be shared beyond that.
If you’d like two different phones to have access to the Digital Map, you’ll both need to purchase the itinerary.
“Does the itinerary tell you how to get to the starting point of each day from my hotel?”
It doesn’t, because everyone who purchases the itinerary will be arriving from different parts of London. But it gives you a concrete starting point, and when you’re at your hotel ready to start your day, just pull up the map, select the starting point, then click “Directions” to see all of your options for getting there. It’s really easy!
“Which phones does the Digital Map work on?”
It’s integrated with the Google Maps app, so it’s available for all phones that use iOS or Android operating systems.
“Can I print the PDF guide?”
Please don’t! It was not created to be printed, and works best in its digital format. Please save some trees and don’t print your guide.
“I have a dietary requirement, do your food suggestions suit that?”
London’s food spots are generally pretty good at accommodating for this, and I’ve included a variety of options that should suit just about everyone. Markets are especially good for this, by the way! This year we’ve added icons indicating restaurants that are veggie friendly, vegan friendly and GF friendly.
That being said, you should aways check the menu online yourself, and you can also phone up a restaurant before you go to ask what they can do for any requirements, as they might have a hidden menu you can choose from, or they can create something special for you if you give enough notice.
I’m personally vegetarian, so if you are too, you’ll find plenty of food options in the itinerary.
“I have a physical disability. Will I be able to do everything in the itinerary?”
Our 2020 itinerary has indicators telling you whether or not each recommendation is wheelchair accessible and there are plenty of options for those who need to avoid stairs. You can expect to walk a fairly good amount each day, but how much depends on how you choose to use the itinerary.
“I have really specific things I want to see, will this work for me?”
I’ve created this itinerary to cover what most people who visit London for the first time typically like to see. Of course, I can’t cover everything! If you have really specific or unique tastes, or don’t want to experience any classic London attractions (even just to see them from the outside) then this probably isn’t for you.
“Is this suitable for families with children?”
The cool thing about London is that most things, and well, pretty much everything when it’s daytime, works for families with kids, if your children are fairly well-behaved. That being said, I’ve not specifically made this itinerary with kids under 16 in mind.
