The London Encounter guide gives you twice the city in half the time.
This is a city that comes at you from every direction - hitting you with tradition, history, pomp and culture on one side, and brash new architecture, bold new food and loooong nights out on the other.
This pared-down number is ideal for quick trips - it's less accommodation, more neighbourhood highlights and the best of local knowledge.

Full-colour pull-out map and detailed neighbourhood maps
Interviews with locals reveal London's secrets
Events diary and suggestions for alternative nights out: cabaret, burlesque, ten-pin bowling
Best clubs, restaurants, music, shopping and theatre
