Getting around is easy with Bond Street and Oxford Circus tube stations connecting you to London's best attractions.

Camden

Camden thrives with alternative culture and punk heritage, a playground for the artistically curious. The famous Camden Market serves up everything from vintage clothing to international street food under Victorian railway arches. Music lovers can catch live acts at legendary venues while colorful murals and street art create an edgy backdrop along Regent's Canal. Getting around couldn't be easier with multiple Underground and Overground stations connecting you to all of London.

London and related destinations

Forget the double-decker bus tours – the real London reveals itself when ducking into centuries-old pubs where Shakespeare might have scribbled sonnets over ale. The British Museum houses treasures from every civilization, all available without spending a penny. Witness the ancient ceremony of the keys at the Tower of London, then compare crown jewels to the sparkling skyline from the London Eye's glass pods. Theater-lovers can score half-price West End tickets at Leicester Square's TKTS booth. Trafalgar Square's pigeons have been banished, but the people-watching remains superb. For a perfect afternoon, grab picnic supplies at Borough Market before sprawling on the grass in Hyde Park, watching locals pretend the fleeting sunshine is perfectly normal.
