“Experiences bookings continued to grow this year and were seeing travellers to the UK heading further afield to discover the country beyond Londons famed attractions,” says Hayley Coleman, a TripAdvisor spokesperson.
“For the many travellers who still wish to see Londons iconic sites, skip-the-line and special access tours, like a Beefeater Tour of the Tower of London or a Champagne Experience at the London Eye, are great options to put a twist on any visit to these world famous spots.”

Paris was named the top location, based of the quality and quantity of traveller reviews and ratings gathered over a 12-month period.
