Latest travel advice on the Coronavirus

The Corona virus has been a concern during the month of February around the world. Here is the latest information and London Magical Tours’ advice on the matter:

 

Currently (as of the 3rd of March 2020) the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) have only warned against travel to mainland China, parts of South Korea and a few towns in northern Italy.

We are pleased to confirm that all London Magical Tours’ visit to London are running as normal. The key piece of advice if you are booking a holiday or trip abroad is to get travel insurance for peace of mind. If you have already booked a trip abroad, you can still get travel insurance. Depending on the insurance purchased, this is likely to protect you if the Government later warns against travel to your destination.

Professor Cosford of Imperial College London added that it is important to put the Corona virus into perspective:

“The vast majority of people will make a recovery from Covid 19 and it is a relatively mild infection” he said. “Children and otherwise healthy adults are at a much lower risk of getting into serious complications.”

We would like to take the opportunity to wish good health to all our visitors and readers, as well as re-assure anyone who is having doubts about travelling. Here at London Magical Tours are team of  Tour Guides and Chauffeurs do their upmost to adhere to the highest professional standard. Our private tours away from the masses see an increase in demand at such times as guests wish to benefit from the personal experience our services offer. All vehicles are throughly cleaned, hand sanitiser is always offered and London can be enjoyed in the comfort of your own private vehicle away from the crowds.

Here are some tips to help during this time:

London Holiday Lights Tours

London Christmas Tours 2019

 

Our annual Christmas tours are now in full swing!

London is looking more festive than ever this year and we are delighted to hear how much our guests are enjoying discovering the best of the capital’s Christmas lights and decorations on our Magical London Christmas tours.

Our award winning London holiday lights tours return this holiday season from 10th of November 2019 to 6th of January 2020. Much more than just the best of the Christmas lights, the tours go on a special holiday  journey of discovery through the ages, from Dickens and secret Christmas trees, to the Victorian Squares and off the beaten path neighbourhoods from which so many of our festive traditions originate.

This year guests can opt to join one of our scheduled group tours or a private tour for ultimate privacy. Get away from the crowds with your own tour team: your own professional London Magical Tours guide plus in addition, an extra chauffeur, to avoid all parking worries. The tour makes extended stops to go outside of the vehicle with your professional guide, with plenty of opportunities for photographs and optional visits to Hamleys Toy Store, Harrods Christmas World or the traditional Victorian Arcades. Collection and return to your central London hotel or accommodation is included on private tours for the perfect holiday experience.
