Okay, hear me out. Buy an off-peak ticket and just ride the Circle Line. You’ll see bits of the city you’ve never noticed—like the house in Notting Hill that looks like a gingerbread castle.
The best part? You get to people-watch. Londoners on the tube have legendary poker faces. You’ll see a man eating a whole baguette, a woman knitting a scarf the size of a parachute, and someone reading a book called How to Be a Hermit.
Exit at Baker Street just to pretend you’re Sherlock Holmes. Put your collar up, glower at a pigeon, and disappear into the drizzle. So dramatic. So London.
