Europe Airline Tickets: What to Do In London   by Mark Etinger

The capital of the British Isles and a one-time center of the world, London town is a great place to visit. Rife with culture, food and history, it is constantly changing and today remains a global capital. Let’s look at what you should do on your trip there.

1. Map: Any good traveler must know the area where he is staying. That said, get yourself a city map that you can fold in your pocket. You’re in luck if you have a smartphone – you can track tube stations and coffee houses easily, but there’s something to be said for doing it the old school way.

2. Culture: You will probably want to soak up as much culture as you can in this city, since Europe airline tickets aren’t dirt cheap even though you did buy them from your travel agency and all. Either way, you won’t be back for a while. Check out some of the world’s best theatre, and look for discounted tickets sold the day of. Hit the Tate, the National Gallery, and the other art museums (they’re all free, so you have no excuse).

3. Eat: A culture is largely defined by the food they eat, and in London that proves true. You can find some of the world’s best Indian food for affordable rates. Skip the Brick Lane in East End, and turn to Masala Zone. When you eat a little early, you get happy hour prices. Wagamama is another chain worth enjoying. And finally, don’t forget the fish and chips!

4. Shop: If you want to shop without spending a lot of money, try hitting the second-hand stores. They may not be glamorous, but they are plentifully filled with cheap designer clothes.

5. Walk: You don’t have to navigate the city by tube. Bring a nice pair of walking shoes to really get a feel for the history. Walking tours like the Jubilee Walkway allow you to see 14 miles of London’s best sights.

6. Day Trips: London is great, but if you’re visiting the U.K. for a week, you may want to see some other sights. The white cliffs of Dover, the cathedrals of Canterbury, and the lure of the college-towns in the north, Oxford and Cambridge are good places to start. Don’t forget about Stonehenge. And if you have a long time, you can even visit Wales or Scotland. Rail passes are available for a certain number of days, and can be chosen for discounted prices if you are a youth (26 or under) or a senior (65 or older).

7. Party: Although most pubs close at midnight, that doesn’t mean you can’t party later. There are serious nightclubs and intimate bars that stay open, just listen for them.

It’s a good idea to book your tickets for travel and lodging in advance so that when you arrive you are ready to explore. See as much as you can and enjoy!
