Report:
Getting into London from Luton Airport is relatively straightforward. Trains are always cheaper the further in advance you book. A few weeks ahead, you can get a single ticket for around €14, or €25.60 for a return, to London St Pancras International (you can book tickets on www.thetrainline.co.uk). Or you can get a cheap coach, such as easy- Bus, which can drop you off at various points in central London. Prices are cheapest if you book in advance, starting at as little as €3 one-way (www.easybus.co.uk).
London offers some of the best theatre in the world and I can't recommend taking in a show enough. A lot of the big hitters, such as Les Miserables, don't have any trouble filling their seats night after night, so cheap tickets can be hard to come by. However, if you are open-minded about what you see, you should be able to get a good deal. Lastminute.com is a good site for checking out offers and ticket availability. If you do spot cheap tickets, contact the venue directly to avoid commission charges.
There is so much to do in London. I'd recommend bypassing the West End and heading east to Shoreditch. This area is home to the funky, young things, with buzzing bars, vibrant Brick Lane with its fantastic curry houses, and a huge array of quirky vintage shops. Pop into the White Cube gallery.
