London, Theatre & Mayfair Tables

London · 5 nights

Five nights in London, with a different focus every day.

The Journey

Five nights based in London, so you unpack once and spend each day on something different.

The days are built around Royal London and Westminster; The Tower, the River and the City; Museums and the West End; and Villages of London. Each one is set out below with what you will see, how you get there and which meals are included.

The defining moment of this route: reserved West End seats and a chef's-table dinner. Your travel specialist can add a night, swap a day or change the order before you book.

Common Questions

Do Indian passport holders need a UK visa?+

Yes. A UK Standard Visitor visa is needed; apply early for summer travel.

Is London good for a first visit with children?+

Very. Many major museums are free, and the river, parks and theatre suit all ages. We pace the days with breaks.

Do we need an Oyster card?+

No. A contactless card or phone works on the Tube and buses, and daily fares are capped automatically.

How far in advance should we book?+

Three to four months ahead gives the widest choice of rooms and guided days, and more for school holidays, festivals and peak season. Shorter notice is often possible; ask and we will check live availability.

Can the itinerary be customised?+

Yes. Every journey is a starting point: add or remove nights, swap a day's plan, change hotels or reorder the route, and your travel specialist re-plans the whole trip around it.

What is the payment schedule?+

Your quote sets out the deposit that confirms the booking and the date the balance is due. Both depend on the hotels, airlines and guides involved, so they are agreed with you before you pay anything.
