Celebrating Christmas in London is a magical experience, as the city comes alive with festive decorations, lights, markets, and events. I spend two days and definitely need to go back. Here are a few things you can see and do while visiting this beautiful city.
Visit the Christmas Markets
London has several Christmas markets offering unique gifts, delicious food, and mulled wine. Some popular markets include Southbank Centre Winter Market and Leicester Square Christmas Market.
Admire the Christmas Lights
Oxford Street, Regent Street, Carnaby Street, and Covent Garden are known for their stunning Christmas lights and window displays. London is truly magical at this time of year, a must visit.
Afternoon tea bus tour
This was a highlight of my trip. As we sip tea and indulge in delicious treats, you will pass by famous attractions such as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, and more. The tour typically includes live commentary about the history and significance of the landmarks you pass, providing an informative and entertaining experience. Best part was the Christmas theme bus with onboard caroling.

London is a vibrant city with a rich history and a multitude of attractions to explore. From iconic landmarks like Big Ben, the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, and the London Eye to neighborhoods, such as Notting Hill, Camden Lock, London Theatre District, there is no shortage of things to see and do in London.
