What to See and What to Skip in London

— -- The secret is out: 2017 may well be one of the best years to visit the U.K. in a long time.

Brexit has a lot to do with it -- the way it helped send the British pound to 30-year lows, giving Americans more spending power and making that notoriously pricey trek across the pond more attainable.

It's a big reason why the United Kingdom made Travelzoo’s Wow Deal Destinations list for 2017.

When it comes to London, all of this is likely to encourage plenty of return visits in the New Year and plenty of first ones. If you’re a first-timer, you’ll find that fascinating experiences are never in short supply.

Here are a few to add to your London to-do list:

Skip the Street, Catch the View
