I had the opportunity to take a few trips, and I never had that feeling of security like I did in London! I also felt a sense of calm despite the crowded streets; it was pleasant and gentle to stroll through the city. Before my trip, I had prepared some free activities to do: visiting museums, walking in parks, visiting monuments, watching the Changing of the Guard.
Posted: March 17, 2025I had an amazing experience travelling to London. I met my long distance friend for the first time and made great memories. London is a very pretty city in my opinion and you’ll always find something cool to do even if you just go out spontaneously. I really enjoyed Soho and China town we met cool people there: ) generally felt safe
Posted: February 28, 2025So, I went a lot of time in London with group. It was for my job and it was great, I love this town, I feel safe even in the areas with lot of people ! It's expensive but it's so cool ! I think I do all the touristic attractions and you can do it one, just for tell you already does 😅 For the meal, I will recommand you, wagamama, it's asian and it's a chain but a good one ! And I tried Franco manca, a chain too but it was very good to ! You can try it eyes bliended, if you love italian and mostly the pizzas !
Posted: February 28, 2025I stayed in London for about 3 days. Let me tell you, that was too short. Not only did I feel really safe in London, the sheer amount of things to do really call for you to stay as long as possible.I’d say while London is on the more expensive side it is very possible to travel there on a budget, a lot of the activities are free and the food you can get in supermarkets is pretty nice. Over all an amazing experience

I felt generally safe in London. We didn’t have any uneasy encounters with anyone. Except for the museum who didn’t let us in because of my ‘free palestine’ bag. We mostly visited the landmarks. We are big foodies so for us the food was the moment! You can try a lot of amazing things in London. We took the flixbus there and found an affordable stay with a good location. London itsself is very pricey. So even if you find a cheap ticket/ride and stay, you will be spending a lot of money there regardless. Our hotel was nice, very small but clean and close to the metro station! We stayed at the Westbury Hotel in Kensington.

I absolutely loved London! Although it was quite expensive and I felt more worried about my belongings, it was an amazing trip. I went for a conference, got to see all the main attractions and even saw Wicked!

London is a great city to visit!! It feels pretty safe, the tube works well and walking around is really fun because the neibourhoods don’t look alike! The food is great in Chinatown if you like Asian food. I stayed at the smart Hyde park view hostel, it was great!

I went to London last May to meet one of my favourite singer and the overall trip was just a dream come true !! I got to see all my favourite places but also eat a proper English breakfast and go to Nando’s (one of my favourite restaurants haha) with a friend and it was so fun ! I stayed in an hostel and it was quite nice even if not the most comfortable. I definitely recommend doing little trips like this one !!!
Posted: February 4, 2025The activities in London are plently and a lot are free or not very expensive. The architecture is pretty for some part of London. The food is expensive and the sellers in Camden Market are very intrusive. They make you taste a simple of their product and then they are trying to make you pay a whole plate of food even if you say that you do not want to buy from them.

Be careful and watch your stuff in touristic areas. People being loud and staring at you on public transport is unfortunately quite normal. It’s not a crime to change your seat inside of the bus or on the metro, if somebody sitting near you is making you uncomfortable. But all in all most of the people in London mind their own business.

It's a pretty safe place, especially during the day. Except you need to be really careful with your phone as there's been a lot of phone thefts in London. At night it's also pretty safe but it's important to stay aware, especially in more dangerous areas and in a darker streets
