What will your London Encounter Be?

You could become a cocktail connoisseur in Notting Hill's ultra cool bars, learn the Tower of London's gruesome history with a beefeater as your Guide or hunt down a bargain at Spitalfields vintage designer cloth shops. You can eat your way around the world at London's many ethnic restaurants, enjoy a duck's-eye view of the city on a boat trip along the Thames or even discover the next big thing at a Camden Town gig.

Discover twice the city in half the time with this useful compact guide. With a full-colour pull-out map, plus detailed neighborhood maps for easy navigation, Lonely Planet’s expert author recommends the very best sights, restaurants, shops and bars, as well as unique itineraries help you get the most out of your visit. Locals even share their London secrets, from a British Museum curator's BM highlights to a Notting Hill bar manager's top local drinking spots.
