Location is optional
Near Me asks for browser location only after you press the button. The coordinates remain inside the current page, are not transmitted to LONNOW and disappear when the page closes or reloads. If you decline, choose Central, East, West, North, South-east or South-west London manually.
What the ranking measures
The shortlist combines approximate straight-line distance with your chosen interest, available time and core budget. It is designed to remove obviously inconvenient options; it does not claim to calculate a live door-to-door journey.
Why distance is approximate
The kilometre figure compares your starting point with a representative point inside each route cluster. The Thames, rail interchanges, closures and walking access can make the real trip longer. Always check a current journey before leaving.
Open the LONNOW route first
Every result leads to a first-party area or attraction guide, not directly to an external booking page. Use that guide to understand the stops, local context and practical trade-offs before opening any official checkpoint.
Choose one anchor nearby
Confirm one essential museum, venue, restaurant or performance, then keep the remaining route flexible. A nearby plan is most valuable when it reduces travel without creating a rigid timetable.
Verify transport and access
Use TfL Journey Planner for current travel time, disruption and the final street-to-street route. Step-free needs require a separate station, lift and venue check; approximate proximity is never an accessibility guarantee.
