Helpful tips for your holiday in London

The best time to travel in a campervan in London is the summer to get the best weather. January and February are the coldest, while August and November are the wettest, but May, June, and July are the most pleasant. However, the city is most crowded during those months, so if you want to avoid that, September through November or March through April is best.

• 

  Sightseeing

  If you don’t mind many people but want nice weather, visiting London from May to July is best. However, you could also go during September for more relaxed time, for example outside the M25 ring road for a quieter driving experience.

• 

  Beaches

  Generally speaking, the temperature ranges from 18 to 25 degrees Celsius during summer, so it is the best day to visit beaches close to London. Brighton Beach is a nice 2-hour drive, but Southend-on-Sea is the closest and is only an hour away.

• 

  Shopping

  London is the perfect place for shopaholics, so the best time to visit depends on what kind of shopping experience you are looking to have. For example, from late December to mid-January, all the winter sales are on. We recommend doing this after you have dropped off your campervan.
