Me and my parents are planning to visit London this December. We’ll be flying into Heathrow Airport and staying at the Travelodge in Chiswick. I’d like to know what’s the quickest and most convenient way to get from Heathrow to the hotel, since we’ll have luggage and don’t want to waste too much time after landing.

We’ll be in London for a full week, so we’re also thinking about what places we should see during our stay. Of course, we’d like to visit some of the main landmarks such as Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, Big Ben, and the London Eye. We’re also interested in walking around different neighborhoods like Covent Garden, Camden, and Notting Hill. If possible, we’d love to take a day trip outside of the city, maybe to Windsor or Oxford.

Since it’s December, we’d also like to know if there are any Christmas markets, lights, or seasonal events worth seeing. Do you have any recommendations on how to plan our week so we can make the most of our time?
