Why waste time cooped up in the airport when you can venture into the streets of London for a personalized adventure in the city with one of our hosts. Use your layover gap in the best way possible and go discover some of the city’s most popular attractions with a local host. Tailored to fit your time, budget and interests, you could squeeze in some last-minute sightseeing. Take in the wonders of Westminster, the London Eye and Trafalgar Square, or explore markets, unique boutiques and restaurants.

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded local host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
