Good to know
Curated- London works best as a collection of neighbourhood days rather than one long attraction checklist.
- Contactless cards work across most public transport; airport journeys and peak periods can cost more.
- Museums are often free, while theatre, viewpoints and special exhibitions can raise the daily budget quickly.
