Stop-over
 

7hr.stop-over in London.Any ideas on where to go and best way to get there?

Hi Jordan, <BR>will u have your stopover in Stansted, Gatwick or Heathrow ?<BR>

Hi Shain<BR>We will be arriving at Heathrow. Time will be 2:30 p.m.<BR>Thanks.

Hi Shain<BR>Will be arriving Heathrow 2:30 p.m.

Don't plan any big time excursion. You face 30 to 90 mins getting out of LHR plus 2 to 3 hour check-in requirement means you have only 2.5 to 4 hours to spare. You can get into London on the Paddington Express in 15 minutes - but it takes 10 to 15 minutes to get to the train. double that for the return journey and you are down to qbout 2 hours sightseeing time.<BR><BR>So - a good alternative is to catch a cab and go to Windsor - it is only about 10 to 15 minutes to the Castle from T-3. Spend 3+ hours wandering around the town and Castle and get back to LHR.

Hi Jordan,<BR>you have to calculate <BR>50 min by subway to the city<BR>50min return to airport + <BR>addtl .45 min security/chk in reasons<BR>makes it about three hours left.<BR><BR>You want for a shopping, better dining ?<BR><BR>After all whats known of the english kitchen, why not use this short stop for<BR>lunch or aerly dinner either the <BR>Le Gavroche - classic elements of french cuisine combinet with modern eglish styles. The interior is edwardian but not to massy, eating room<BR>is a wonderful british light mint. Stylish. You can call for opening hours and make(must) a reservation<BR>+44-020-74080881<BR>or you like a more french style cuisine<BR>in an discrete intimate place such as<BR>"Tante Claire".(Knightsbridge)<BR>You will find enlightened seafruits and<BR>rich cheese flavours for dessert. <BR>It will take about 2,5/3 hours for a relaxed dining.<BR><BR>Otherwise I suggest to take the Heathrow Express that takes you normally<BR>45min to Padington station (every 15min. Terminal 1-3)<BR><BR>Or take a dayroom at one of the airport hotels, rest, swim, eat, enjoy your stay, and fight against jetlag.<BR><BR>Where are u coming from and where are you going to would be another question.<BR>If it will be a longer flight (more than another 3 hrs) stay in the airport hotel.<BR>More infoes needed?<BR>Shain/eu/de/d&uuml;sseldorf<BR>Also note whitch date it will be, and<BR>check out for special markets f.e.<BR><BR><BR>Actually maybe it's better to take a<BR>
