This review is from: London For Dummies, 2nd Edition (Paperback)
This book is wonderful. My husband and I took this book with us on our trip to London in the fall and it helped us out tremendously. The recommendations for hotels were great as was the information for all the sights to see. It has great information as to the hours and prices of different attractions. I highly recommend this book.

This review is from: London For Dummies, 2nd Edition (Paperback)
We just returned from our first trip to the U.K. and this book was a lifesaver. I bought London for Dummies several months before we left along with several other more well known guides but I ended up using this guide more than all of the others put together. The advice on customs and the VAT saved me enough money to pay for the book several times over and made my trip back through U.S. customs a breeze.

The information in this book is very well organized and easy to follow. Special tips are found all through the book and get you ready for a few things you might not expect. I found that, mostly because of this book, I was able to travel around London as if I had been there many times.

If you are about to go to London for the first time don't go without this book. Nothing can ruin a trip like getting to a new city and feeling completely lost and alone. I never had that problem and I give a lot of credit to this book for that. Study it before you leave and be ready. It is an easy and fun read and once you get to London you will be glad you took the time to be ready.

This is a wonderful book with one exception. It states your passport needs to have "at least 2 months remaining validity to enter the United Kingdom.." In fact, you must have 6 months! Beware!
