It's been a long time since I have been to London and my husband has never been. We want to spend about a week exploring the city as well as day trips to Dover, the Cotswolds, Windsor etc. In other words we want to do ALL the things. We are booked on Celebrity Apex out of Southampton Aug 27th through Sept 18th on a B2B. It's not a super strenuous cruise as we have done many of the ports before. Normally I'd book the week in London pre-cruise because hubby prefers to get that kind of travel done and then when the cruise is over go straight home. But I'm wondering if waiting to do London in mid/late September instead of mid-August will make a significant difference in price and crowds? We will be 47 and 61 at the time, no kids. But he can get a little grumpy with crowds which we dealt with pretty significantly in Europe this past summer. I'd appreciate any advice 🙂
