A guided tour of London not to be missed. Only 30 spots available,
pre-registration required when you sign-in to the conference on
Saturday.
Will last 2 hours approximately, covering the City of London and surrounding areas.
Hotels
Below are a few hotel suggestions.
Please note London is a very large city and commuting may be time
consuming. We suggest you choose a hotel either close to the conference
venue (Acton, White City, Sheperd's Bush) or closer to the social even
on Saturday night (Covent Garden, Soho, Charing Cross).
London Underground is expected to start a 24 hour service during the
fall on week-ends. The announced date was September 12, but the recent
Tube strikes have pushed this back and there is no official date for
commencement of the 24 service yet.
Central London
These hotels are close to the social events on Saturday night, but
expect around 30 minutes to get to the conference venue on Saturday:
Acton/White City
Closer to the conference venue. They are located in zone 2 of the
London transporation zone, about 15-20 minutes from Central London
See you there!
