How to Start Planning Your '21/'22 London Trip NOW

Even if your London trip is still very far off, there are tons of things you can do to start planning a trip to London right now! I mean we could all really use something to look forward to after 2020 AMIRIGHT

Ok so in this video I'm telling you about all the things you need to plan in advance for your London trip and how far they need to be planned. Talking about when flights should be booked (considering the current climate), the important thing you MUST have when traveling next year or you might lose out on a lot of money, when to book London hotels, and more.

I also talk about some tools you can use to do all of your London travel research, to find lots of info about things to do, and how to save it so you can reference it all as and when you need.

Also mentioned in the video:

Travelling to London is my childhood dream.

We did London at Christmastime 2 years ago. My take-aways: If possible, upgrade flight over and fly home cheaper (Virgin Atlantic was wonderful), staying at an airbnb will save you a ton of money on food, stay close to a tube station to get around, warm clothes for winter a must, including hat and waterproof shoes, viator and London Pass for sightseeing, definitely get tickets for NYE fireworks on the Thames (amazing), don't use travelex for $ (use bank cash card when you arrive), sim card at airport for internet, use what's app for communicating with home, Fortnum and Mason for high tea, skip Harrods and Tate Modern, walk to the top of Saint Pauls church, Portobello Road for shopping, Boro Market for food.

"So sit down and binge watch all my videos..."

Hahaha oops, might have found myself doing this as I get ever more excited for my 2 weeks in London in August.

Looking forward to a 2022 visit, hopefully 10 days. Great idea to start saving as soon as possible. Thank you for the advice.

"Don't forget it's expensive here!" with the head wag is my favorite part 😄

[obaby]

Thank you so much. i hate traveling without at least a shell of a plan so that im making the most of my visit - this is my 4th video o your channel and i feel my anxiety level like almost totally dissipate learning from you- 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[mssquirrelgirl]

Trying to plan a ladies trip (first time to London) for my 40th in spring of 2021! I’m so glad to have found your channel and Instagram!!

[eme.manson]

Yassss! Can't wait to be back in London and this girl loves her planning so this was great to watch! Looking forward to more londonist content and I'll definitely sign up for all the planning stuff you've mentioned! 💪🤓

[phothawkraphy]

love the shameless plugs for your brand. Even though I've been to London before and know my way around to an extent, I always find inspiration for new places to check out and explored based on your Instagram posts and video content so keep up the good work!

[technojunkie]

Edit: a BIG thing I think you should buy pre-trip are some UK/EU travel adapters! Don't cause yourself unnecessary stress by having to search for one after coming off a long flight.

Using Pinterest to categorize different aspects of the city im visiting is such a great idea! I can't believe I hadn't thought about that before - it would help me so much better instead of relying on saved places on Google maps

[francismajor]

Nope, no plans to visit London anytime soon. Maybe I'll go back in a few years. Miss you, London.

[sarahp.]

Thanks, Jess! I can't wait to start researching for next Xmas!! We appreciate your input! You're making us all excited for the future! Cheers to you!
