Location & Tips For Travelers Location - London is the keystone of England, and to most English speakers it is, in a way, home. That is not to say that London is exclusively for the English speaker, for people the world over who are fortunate enough to be able to travel there, it is an popular destination. London weather and climate - London is a year-round tourist centre, with few of its attractions closing or significantly reducing their opening hours in winter. Your best chance of good weather is, of course, at the height of summer in July and August, but there's certainly no guarantee of sun even in those months and that is when you can expect the biggest crowds and highest prices.Weather Forecast for London British weather is rarely extreme. Local Customs - London is a city overflowing with rich traditions that make it instantly recognisable from many aspects. In East London residents dress as 'pearly kings and queens wearing costumes decorated with buttons to celebrate being born within the sound of the bells at Bow Church. What to wear - For business meetings, both men and women wear suits. Socially, the British tend to have an informal yet presentable dress code. It is, however, advisable for men to bring a jacket and tie for dining out at exclusive restaurants where more formal dress may be required. Tipping - Many restaurants and large hotels (particularly those belonging to chains) will automatically add a 10% - 15% service charge to your bill, so always check in advance before you hand out any extra money. Transportation - Train services from the rest of England, Scotland and Wales are frequent and most British communities have or are within relatively short distance to a train station. With the advent of the Channel Tunnel there is direct train service from European cities to London. London has many main line stations, each serving a different part of the country.
