How to avoid wasting time when visiting London (STOP doing these🤦🏽‍♀️)

- Hello from London.

A problem that I hear a lot of my viewers have

is that there's so much they wanna see

and do while they're here,

but they're struggling to fit everything

into their itinerary.

So in this video, I'm gonna give you my top tips

for how you can maximise your visit to London,

even with your limited time here,

and how to do it without completely burning out

and falling over, exhausted in the middle of the street.

So let's go.

(gentle upbeat music)

London is a very popular city to visit.

I mean, look at it.

This whole channel shows you why,

but that also means that during peak times,

which is basically during the school holidays in the summer,

so from July to early September,

and also during the Christmas period,

it gets very, very busy in this city.

If you're planning on doing the very touristy things,

you should expect to do

a little bit less than you had planned

because there will be so slow-moving,

and you might also miss out on a couple of things

if they are sold out.

So if you can avoid travelling during peak time,

then you can avoid the craziness of those peak time crowds.

However, I know a lot of people

cannot avoid travelling at those times.

So there's actually a really easy solution

to avoid it anyway.

It's to explore outside of the main touristy areas

and attractions.

If you go explore areas like Hampstead, Brixton,

or London Fields, those are not affected by mass tourism.

So you will not have to worry about slow-moving,

everything, and also, lots of crowds.
