✈️ United Kingdom: London — June 17–21, 2026

Welcome to a masterfully curated journey through the heart of the British Empire, specifically tailored for two history enthusiasts. This itinerary balances iconic landmarks with hidden Roman ruins and maritime legends, ensuring a deep historical immersion while respecting an economy budget.

🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect a significant heatwave with temperatures peaking between +24°C and +29°C. The sun is intense (UV 7+), so SPF and hats are mandatory. To stay comfortable, we’ve prioritized air-conditioned museums during the afternoon heat (14:00–17:00). Be prepared for sudden evening thunderstorms—a lightweight raincoat is more reliable than an umbrella in the wind. Take advantage of the "Golden Hour" after 20:00 for photography, as the sun sets late (21:19).
