Why do Travellers Choose The London Pass Tour?

This all-encompassing sightseeing credits package includes access to more than 80 of London’s top attractions, plus a digital guide packed with attraction information and instructions on how to redeem your credits.

Does my London Pass include transport to and from the airport?

You must collect the London Pass from central London. Transportation from London airports to central London will not be possible. However, if you choose the Travel card upgrade, once you have received your London Pass, you may use the Travel card to return to the airport on the normal services. Note: the only London airports accessible with the London Pass Travel card are Heathrow (all terminals) and London City Airport. London Pass Travel card will not be accepted on the Heathrow Express, Gatwick Express or Stansted Express.

Please Note: Adults will be issued a Visitor Oyster card. Each electronic Oyster Travelcard comes pre-loaded with a credit/value to match your London Pass duration. 1 day = £10, 2 days = £15, 3 days = £25 and 6 days = £40. This is calculated to be enough credit to cover the equivalent number of days of travel within central London.  If you travel further outside the central zones 1-3 you might have to top up the credit on your Oyster card.

Children under 11 years of age can travel for free on London Transport with an Adult holding a valid Oyster Card. Children between 11 – 15 with a 1, 2, 3 and 6-day London Pass will receive a Paper Travelcard, not an Oyster Card.

Can I see all the London Attractions in a single day?

Even for the travel enthusiast seeing all the 80 plus London attractions is not possible in a single day London Pass. In case you really want to see the maximum number of attractions in a day, you will have to plan your travels in advance and check for the routes via Google Maps from your hotel/accommodation location.

London Pass Cancellation Policy

The London Pass is non-refundable and cannot be changed for any reason. If you cancel or ask for an amendment, the amount you paid will not be refunded.

Sightseeing Tour of St Katherine’s Docks

Sightseeing Tour of St Katherine’s Docks

I have been to London quite many times. This time I visited St Katherine’s Docks by mistake and it was worth making this mistake. I planned to go around places where I have never been—essentially going off beaten tracks around London. Every tourist who comes to London surely goes to Tower Bridge to visit the bridge and the Tower of London. As I myself have been to Tower Bridge many times I decided to go around it instead going straight to it. Checking out the areas surrounding.

Random Discovery of St Katherine’s Docks

What I discovered to my surprise was when I walked towards the bridge, I took the left turn and came across St Katherine’s Dockland. It’s essentially a luxury Yacht Marina, with a leisure area around. It’s a nice walk of about 2 km in total from Tower Bridge to St Katherine’s Docks and back to the bridge. While walking beside the Thames river you will be routed towards St Katherine’s way. Then in front of you, you have this nice Marina view and lots of leisure yachts docked. On the right when you cross there is a nice Italian Restaurant named River Lounge.

Restaurants and Pubs around St Katherine’s Dock

On a sunny day, tourists can enjoy a nice meal in the docklands area in a variety of restaurants and bars and then a nice riverside walk. I was literally impressed by the hidden treasures, like hideouts from the crowd kind of places. Katherine’s Docks even had Starbucks, Zizzi, Mala Indian Restaurant, Strada, Cote, and The Ivory Vaults to name a few of the mouth-watering restaurants in the area. Guess what they also had a Tesco Express (small stores) for your day-to-day grocery needs.

The Dickens Inn
The Dickens Inn

On your left-hand side while walking in St Katherine Dock you will see The Dickens Inn. The Dickens Inn is a restored pub and restaurant. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the chance to go inside and have some lunch or drink, but I am sure next time I will come by and will surely enjoy a nice drink here. The building looked fabulous with nice flowers and atmosphere around. It was a treat looking at it, like a nice hidden relaxing place to chill. I would seriously recommend tourists to come and enjoy lunch and some relaxing time at St Katherine’s Dock when you are around the Tower Bridge area.
