Mindful meoweler tips

London Tower Bridge is not London Bridge

The iconic Tower Bridge is often mistaken for its less impressive neighbour, London Bridge. Take a paw to admire the stunning architecture and maybe even watch it open for a passing boat!

Cash is not king

Most places accept card payments in London, so leave your stash of cash at home. If you need to use cash, make sure to visit an ATM inside a bank or convenience store to avoid card skimmers.

Mind the gap on the tube

The gap between the platform and the train is no joke! Listen for the announcements and watch your paws when boarding and disembarking the Underground.
