Questions

Do I also need the guide?

No, each route works on its own. The London Guide is for people who want to understand the city and make their own choices; the routes are for people who want the days decided. If you want both, the Complete London Collection is the better deal.

Can I change the route?

Yes. Every day has simple swaps, optional stops and a 'skip it if' note, so you can swap things around without breaking the geography that makes the day work.

What format is it?

One fillable PDF: add your dates and notes on screen, or print it.

Is this custom travel planning?

No. It's a ready-made, researched route: the same plan for everyone, built so it still works when you swap pieces in or out.
