Has anyone been to United Kingdom recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there a while back and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $150/day all-in.
My tip: go early evening.

Also recommend downloading WhatsApp before you go. Essential.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.
