St. James's and Mayfair

Making the Most of Your Time

Reserve at least a day to see the sights in St. James's and Mayfair, but choose carefully, as this is one of London's most densely packed, and visited, districts.

The only areas to avoid are the Tube stations at rush hour, and Oxford Street if you don't like crowds.

At all costs, stay away from Oxford Circus around 5 pm, when the commuter rush can, at times, resemble an East African wildebeest migration.
