London attracts more than 20 million tourists every year and it’s easy to see why. Visitors can enjoy lavish hotels, acclaimed restaurants and awe-inspiring attractions.

Brimming with high-end shops, restaurants, and hotels, including the world-famous Dorchester and The Ritz, Mayfair has been coined as one of the classiest areas of London. This has made Mayfair a top choice for visitors looking for a luxury stay.

London is a culinary haven with a range of must-try restaurants offering exceptional service, ambience, and cuisine. Experience multi-sensory dining at Heston Blumenthal's three-Michelin-starred The Fat Duck, or visit Dinner by Heston Blumenthal at the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park for a modern take on historical British recipes.

Another standout is Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester, known for its three Michelin stars and masterful French cuisine. These are just a few highlights of London’s outstanding culinary scene!

Exclusive London experience

When visiting London, there is so much to see and do. Why not indulge in a shopping spree down Sloane Street or Harrods, or arrange a private shopping experience in one of London’s designer showrooms? For complete cultural immersion, take a VIP tour with private access to historic landmarks, such as Buckingham Palace or the British Museum, or even book a backstage experience at iconic venues like the Royal Opera House.

Lavish country retreats

Escape the city and enjoy a rural retreat in London’s home counties, such as Buckinghamshire or Surrey. Why not charter a helicopter to take you from A to B without delay? Or simply enjoy the best of the British countryside from an aerial view?

Make sure to rejuvenate and unwind in England’s best-loved luxurious spa and wellness hotels, such as The Grove in Hertfordshire, Hartwell House in Buckinghamshire, or Cliveden House in Berkshire. And, of course, don’t forget to make a reservation for afternoon tea for the ultimate British country experience.

When is the best time to visit London?

The best time to visit London is during the spring and summer months. At this time of year, the sun is shining and you can enjoy warmer temperatures, allowing you to explore all the wonders of the city parks, shopping streets, and outdoor attractions. During the summertime, London is also packed with cultural events, festivals, and outdoor markets, offering an unmissable, vibrant and lively atmosphere.
