Itineraries
London is full of so many AMAZING things to do and see, so deciding how to spend your time in this incredible city can be challenging. Talk about a great problem to have, right? 😉 But that’s where I’m here to help! 🤍 I’ve been living in London for 8+ years, know the city very well, and have helped design trips here for others that tailor to what they’re looking for and save them hours or days of research. And I’d love to do the same for you 🇬🇧 ✨ HOW THIS WORKS: - Specify the number of planned days you’d like - the entire trip or a portion - Answer a few questions to share your trip preferences - Pay 50% now and the rest after your itinerary has been delivered - Provide feedback on the preliminary version (for Premium and Luxe only) - Receive a private web and mobile friendly Thatch Guide, made exclusively for you, by the delivery deadline that will contain activities, food and accommodation options, and any additional items you’d need or want Any additional revisions, rush fees, extra days planned, one-off bookings etc. that arise throughout the process can be discussed and agreed over email, and added to the total sum before the final itinerary is sent over and remaining payment is due. ✨ BENEFITS FOR YOU: - A great way to feel prepared for your London trip and to make the most of your time once you arrive - Saves you hours of research - Tailored to match your interests, tastes and style - Crafted by a London enthusiast who knows the city very well! ✨ WHAT PACKAGE MIGHT BE RIGHT FOR YOU: - Standard: great for someone who is looking for a day-by-day breakdown of key activities and is similar to what a traditional travel agent provides -Premium: the most popular itinerary level on Thatch involving more daily detail, logistics for moving between locations and more specific hotel recommendations -Luxe: same level of detail as Premium but involves booking hotels and restaurant reservations on your behalf I look forward to creating some magic for you! 🌏

And that's what brought me to Thatch 🤍 🗺️ MY TRAVEL STYLE: I love... • High quality but affordable places and experiences • Having a plan but also flexibility to go with the flow • Exploring a mix of classic and off-the-beaten-track gems • Lively settings but also relaxing ones • Being outside If this sounds like you too, you’re in the right place ✔️ 🗺️ WHY ME: • I'm a program manager - planning and organising is what I do! • I’ve been to nearly 50 countries and lived in four 🌍 • I’ve been using a tip in the last 3+ years that have made my trips SO much better - and will do the same for you • I prioritise being helpful and providing value 🗺️ WHAT YOU CAN FIND HERE: • Guides, DIY walking tours, interactive maps of London, UK, Europe and beyond - most are free and some are priced very competitively • Custom itineraries and curated recommendations for London - to ensure you have an amazing personalised experience through my local lens 🇬🇧 THANK YOU for being here and I can't wait to connect 🙏 📸 Follow me on IG (@awaywithalbs) for more travel tips and recommendations, trip planning motivation, and travel stories with lessons learned.
