A CITY THAT NEEDS NO INTRODUCTION
IATA 50200883 IATA 50209994
London is a modern, innovative, and iconic city, steeped in history. It’s famous for its historic palaces and magnificent landmarks, world class museums, iconic attractions and events, picturesque parks and gardens.
LONDON 2024-2025
Immersed in history, London’s rich seams of eye-opening antiquity are everywhere. The city’s buildings are striking milestones in a unique and beguiling biography, and a great many of them – the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben – are instantly recognisable landmarks. There’s more than enough innovation (the Shard, the Tate Modern extension, the Sky Garden) to put a crackle in the air, but it never drowns out London’s seasoned, centuries-old narrative. Architectural grandeur rises up all around you in the West End, ancient remains dot the city and charming pubs punctuate the historic quarters, leafy suburbs and riverbanks. Take your pick. This city is deeply multicultural, with one in three Londoners foreign born, representing 270 nationalities and 300 tongues. The UK may have voted for Brexit (although the majority of Londoners didn’t), but for now London remains one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities, and diversity infuses daily life, food, music and fashion. It even penetrates intrinsically British institutions; the British Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum have collections as varied as they are magnificent, while the flavours at centuries-old Borough Market run the full global gourmet spectrum.

LONDON 2024-2025
A tireless innovator of art and culture, London is a city of ideas and imagination. Londoners have always been fiercely independent thinkers (and critics), but until not so long ago, people were suspicious of anything they considered avant-garde. That’s in the past now, and the city’s creative milieu is streaked with left-field attitude, whether it’s theatrical innovation, contemporary art, pioneering music, writing, poetry, architecture or design. Food is another creative arena that has become a tireless obsession in certain circles. London is as much about wide-open vistas and leafy landscape escapes, as it is high-density, sight-packed, urban exploration. Central London is where the major museums, galleries and most iconic sights congregate, but visit Hampstead Heath or the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park to flee the crowds and frolic in wide open green expanses. You can also venture further out to Kew Gardens, Richmond or Hampton Court Palace, for beautiful panoramas of riverside London, followed by a pint in a quiet waterside pub.
