Every August bank holiday weekend, millions of revellers take to the streets of West London for two epic days of music, parades, food and dancing!
A celebration of London’s large Caribbean diaspora, Notting Hill Carnival began in the mid-1960s, and has grown dramatically over the years, today attended by some two million people from across the city and beyond! It centres around a giant parade that features floats, dance troupes, steel drummers and much more, though for many revellers the main draw is the hundreds of giant sound systems which pump out the bass-heavy music of Jamaica and its neighbouring islands.

Rob was a fantastic guide. The trip was very enjoyable and Robs knowledge and expertise were great. Would defo recommend
Excellent service from start to finish. I booked the National 3 Peasks challenge in 24 hours. i had regular communication from Rob and the team prioe to the event checking in on my progress, which really spurred me on as well as a helpful fitness plan i has to folow. For the challenge itself Rob and Tim really helped put the group at ease, and was very encouraging. Such a credit to business. i would not hesitate at all in recommending bookitlist to friends and family and will define use again in the future. Thank you for pushing me to finish the challenge!
Just come back from completing the 24 hour natinal 3 Peaks Challenge with Bookitlist. 25-27th June 2021. From start to finish the group I was in was well looked after. From pick up to drop off the team were well organised & made the experience/challenge as enoyable & relaxing as possible. an unforgettable experience & will definitely be looking out for what other trips they have to offer.
From world-famous landmarks to the boutiques and theatres of the West End, along with close to 200 museums, over 1500 galleries, 3000 parks, and a seemingly endless array of clubs, bars, and eateries. London truly has it all, and is the perfect destination for a city break!
