Top 10 Local Gems to Visit with 3 Days in London

There's a LOT to do in London, and the thing is that the spots that I think visitors should definitely check out are usually ones that they haven't heard of. Sure, you know of Sketch, Dishoom, Peggy Porschen... but so does everyone else... for better or for worse.

If you'd like to dig deeper into the Londoner culture and discover some spots that are off-the-beaten-path but very much worth visiting, then watch this video. The beautiful thing is that they can all be visited with just three days in London if you plan accordingly.

About Love and London:
I'm Jess, I've lived in London for many years, and this channel is a London travel guide for anyone visiting the city that wants to experience it like you live here. Beyond talking about the usual London attractions, I show you some of the cooler things to do in London, that most travel guides don't mention. Watch my videos and you'll feel like you've got a Londoner friend telling you the best kept secrets in the city.

Hi, Jess, another fascinating and useful video. Your content is so useful to people visiting our great city for the first time and for people who live here who dont know some of the places you find. Looking forward to your next video soon.

Thanks Jess! Nice production as usual! Our two day whirlwind tour of London in September was tops thanks to you and your team! Its been fun to watch this and recall our great time there. All of these gems will be on our next tour to London. Three cheers to the Big Bus Tour! Charles was an amazing walking tour guide with them! We had come from Paris on the "Chunnel" train, got off at St. Pancras station, walked 4 blocks to our AirBnB to drop off our bags, then picked up the green Big Bus to take us downtown and back several times on our 48 hour pass. We only had to ride the tube once going into town. I'm looking forward to more of your videos.

I think its fantastic that you have such an in depth knowledge of the real London and not just the awful tourist attractions. I'm English and only live forty miles from London but you've opened my eyes to some places I never knew about. Finally I have to say that I've seen quite a few of your videos and your accent is definitely becoming more British 😀

Great vid, Jess. We have been blessed to have visited London several times. So, now, when we go, we want to find places that aren't as tourist heavy and are very local. Your videos are a great help! Keep it up, my friend!

[marlagastelum]

Have you been to Old Bakery Gin pop up bar, last Sat of every month only in an historic Mews in Nth London, they supply Gin to Buckingham Palace.

[martapantin]

Hi Jess, your videos are very amusing. Being a travel agent myself I see that you are more interested in accomodations, bars, food and vintage clothes. A little oj history is very amusing too, and it offers real information.

[LNSmusician]

Hey Jess! Love you're videos! Traveling to London from Canada at the end of the month of May, i just can't wait!!
