Capital: London Entry Requirements: Valid passports are required of US citizens. Currency: Pound sterling Best Time of Year to Visit: Summer (although late summer can be very crowded, especially in London. Late spring and early fall can be very nice and less crowded.) Getting Around: Getting around in London is a simple order thanks to an excellent system of subways (the "tube") and top notch taxis. Getting around the country is easy as well; an elaborate network of trains connect cities and smaller communities throughout. If the two ofyou will be doing a great deal of train travel, consider a BritRail Pass to allow for unlimited travel for a specified period. BritRail FlexiPasses are also great buys; these allow for unlimited travel on a set number of days spread out over an extended period. (RailPasses must be purchased outside the country so check with your travel agent before leaving home.) Public Holidays: January 1 Good Friday Easter Monday First Monday in May (May Day) Last Monday in May (bank holiday) Last Monday in August (bank holiday) December 25-26 |
