Local Travel Guide Series (DK Eyewitness)

by DK Eyewitness Travel

Keen to explore a different side of London? Like a Local is the book for you.

This isn't your ordinary travel guide. You won't find the London Eye or Buckingham Palace in these pages, because that's not where Londoners hang out. Instead, you'll meet the locals at hidden record shops, cosy pubs and indie galleries - and that's where this book takes you. Turn the pages to discover:

- The small businesses and community strongholds that add character to this vibrant city, recommended by true locals.
-6 themed walking tours dedicated to specific experiences such as street art and brewing history.
- A beautiful gift book for anyone seeking to explore London.
- Helpful 'what3word' addresses, so you can pinpoint all the listed sights.
- A thoughtfully updated second edition, including new sights to discover.

Compiled by three proud Londoners and revised and updated for 2023, this stylish travel guide is packed with London's best experiences and secret spots, handily categorised to suit your mood and needs.

Whether you're a restless Londoner on the hunt for a new hangout, or a visitor keen to discover a side you won't find in traditional guidebooks, London Like A Local will give you all the inspiration you need.

[Susan Morris]

Lots of great ideas for sites to visit in London.

[Cheryl Chalfant]

A slim travel book with some interesting recommendations. The format was not may favorite as it simply grouped recommendations under a category and not by area. Yes, there is a somewhat helpful map key, but I found there to be a lot of back and forth in the book as I planned our trip. Ultimately I turned to other guides.

[Savannah Sanchez]
