No need to worry about a long commute to your accommodation or first activity for sure… London has monitored congestion zones, meaning it can be very costly to travel via car.

Where to stay

The options for where to stay in London are endless. You should first decide on the type of accommodation that will suit you best. If you are travelling with young children, you may prefer to go for an Airbnb where you can make yourself more at home, have access to a kitchen, etc.
