Visa

Irish citizens travelling to United Kingdom, including London, do not require a visa for short stays, as travel is permitted under the Common Travel Area between Ireland and the UK, allowing easy movement for tourism, short breaks and visits.



However, travellers should always ensure they carry valid identification, such as a passport or Irish passport card, and check entry requirements in advance if they hold a non-Irish passport or have specific travel circumstances, as rules can vary.

Climate

London has a temperate climate with mild temperatures and changeable weather throughout the year, making it a great year-round city break destination. Understanding the seasons can help you plan your trip, and Tully’s Travel can help you choose the best time to visit.



Spring (March to May) Mild and fresh, with blooming parks and pleasant conditions for sightseeing.

Summer (June to August) Warm and lively, with longer days, outdoor events and a vibrant atmosphere across the city.

Autumn (September to November) Crisp air and colourful parks create a perfect backdrop for sightseeing, culture and cosy evenings.

Winter (December to February) Cool and festive, with Christmas lights, markets and seasonal events adding to the city’s charm.

Transport Options Around London

Travel to London is best planned around direct flights, rail connections and local transport options such as the Underground, buses, taxis and private transfers, depending on whether you’re visiting for a short city break, combining nearby UK destinations, or exploring the city at a relaxed pace.

Air Travel

Domestic and short-haul flights are the most practical way to reach London from Ireland and across the UK and Europe, with major airports including London Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City Airport providing strong access for city breaks, theatre trips, shopping weekends, cultural experiences and onward connections throughout the UK and beyond.

Train

Train travel works well for exploring London and the wider UK, with fast and frequent rail connections from cities across England, Scotland and Wales, as well as convenient links from Dublin via ferry and onward rail, making it a comfortable and scenic way to reach the capital and travel between neighbourhoods and nearby destinations without relying on flights.

Bus

Buses and coaches can be useful for budget-friendly travel around London and the wider UK, offering affordable options for airport transfers, intercity journeys and sightseeing tours, particularly where rail routes are less direct, although journey times can vary depending on traffic and should be planned in advance when building a broader itinerary.

Taxi's

Black cabs in London are a reliable and iconic way to get around the city, offering licensed, metered door-to-door transport that can be hailed on the street, found at taxi ranks, or booked in advance. They’re especially convenient for short journeys, airport transfers, and travelling at night when you want a simple and direct option.

Travel Tips for First-Time Visitors

  • Don’t try to pack too much into one visit: London is full of world-class attractions, so it’s better to enjoy a few areas properly rather than rushing across the city.
  • Check hotel location and transport links: Where you stay can make a big difference, with central areas often offering the easiest access to sights, dining and entertainment.
  • Plan airport transfers in advance: Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City are all well connected, but pre-booked transfers can make arrival smoother and less stressful.
  • Use public transport smartly: The Underground, buses and rail services are efficient, but planning routes in advance helps save time in a busy city.
  • Keep your first day light: After travelling, it’s best to take it easy, explore nearby areas and ease into the pace of the city.

Travel Tips for Experience Explorers

  • Build your trip around areas rather than just attractions: London works best when you explore it by neighbourhoods like Westminster, South Bank, Camden and Notting Hill, each offering a very different feel and experience.
  • Stay in well-connected locations: Choosing accommodation near a Tube station or central hub can completely change how much you can comfortably see and do.
  • Use rail and transport links wisely: London’s Underground, buses and overground services make it easy to move between areas, but planning ahead helps you avoid unnecessary travel time.
  • Book key attractions in advance: Popular experiences such as the London Eye, West End shows and major museums or tours can fill quickly, especially in peak seasons.
  • Leave room for wandering: Some of London’s best moments come from discovering hidden streets, markets, riverside walks, pubs and cafés you didn’t plan to find.
