With its handy highlights of how to do 24 hours on the cheap, with nature or in romantic mood, you'll never be at a loss in London again.

24 Hours London is different in that it is an around-the-clock guide to what to do in London, and it truly has the sorts of suggestions that are some of London's best-kept secrets, showing off the depth and breadth of what London has beyond the known and obvious tourist traps (though these are of course still worth a visit!). It's not a stiff or formal guide - it's easy-to-read and includes all relevant details/information (how to get there/opening times etc).
Whether it's your first time to London or if you've lived there all your life, this book is definitely worth buying.

I have quite a few travel books for various cities I've visited, but this one is so different from the rest. Not only is each segment divided by an hour of the day so you really could do something every moment of every day, but the ideas are so fresh and different! I want to pack my bags for London today.
Even a native Londoner would enjoy this sampling of out-of-the-way and interesting things to do.
I bought a copy for myself, and one as a gift for my parents who have been talking about making a trip to London in the spring. I'm so glad I did! I wouldn't want to have to share my copy and I'm sure they'll love it.

Book review
It's ok and I love my guide books. Some of the suggestions (house in the middle of the street that's no longer there) don't exist though. Have only tried 1 or 2 of them though.

what a find!
What a great find this book was, a little gem. I went to places I never would have found on my own. The Jack the Ripper evening tour was amazing, funny and very interesting. Read more
