Autumn In London
Accessible London is still crowded with tourists well into mid-September, thanks to the mild 15-20 degree temperatures. The photogenic autumn foliage doesn’t hurt either. If you’re looking to really sink your teeth into the culture the best time to visit is between September and November. These month’s annual events, especially Guy Fawkes Night, are celebrations deeply rooted in not only London but England’s history.

However, it is always a good idea to book in advance and to make certain the accommodation you have booked offers adequate accessibility suited to your needs.
