Crowns and crumpets. Scones and sceptres. Teatime and happy hour. Whether your idea of the perfect Independent City Stay in London is filled with the royal treatment or some retail therapy, you’ll find the freedom to immerse yourself in everything there is to love about this city. With just the right amount of expertly guided excursions, you can take it from there to explore the streets and beats of London’s West End or linger along the lanes of Notting Hill at your own pace. Bangers and mash or fish and chips? Afternoon tea or pubs? Big Ben or Beefeaters? Beatles or Stones? No matter how London’s calling you, you’re sure to rule the day!

Your Globus Independent tour delivers all the perks you'd expect from Globus, plus the I-Time you crave to explore on your own. We take care of the details with included accommodations, daily breakfasts, select guided sightseeing, and a Local Host in each city to assist you. We’ll also handle flight arrangements and airport transfers at the beginning and end of your tour, if you wish.
