Luxurious London Locales – Splashing Out When Money Doesn’t Matter
London has it all. Not only is it the Capital of the Country, but it’s also a Fashion and Finance Capital of the world. Where money and glamour meet, you will never be short of finding things to do that may well be out of range of the pauper’s purse. So if you fancy splashing the cash and experiencing all that London has to offer, here are a few ideas to take you off the beaten path and into the world of the wealthy.
Spend A Night Like Stiller
Live the movies; the Natural History Museum makes it possible to skip the crowds and sleep under the dino-stars! This adults-only overnight option includes music and movies, a sumptuous breakfast buffet along with craft beer and wine.
An Eye In The Sky
Taking a flight on the London Eye can be a thrilling experience, one enjoyed by tourists worldwide. You can convert this experience into a private event by booking a capsule entirely for you and your guests. One of the most exclusive choices is champagne tasting capsule, reserved for up to 30 guests while enjoying five Pommery Champagnes.
Sumptuous Salvatore
Head on over to Mr Salvatore Calabrese’s bar at the Playboy Club where he expertly crafted the world’s most expensive cocktail using four ingredients: a 1778 Clos de Griffier Vieux Cognac, a 1770 Kummel Liqueur, a circa 1860 Dubb Orange Curacao and a few dashes of circa 1900s Angostura Bitter. This incredible concoction will only set you back approximately £5,500 per drink!
Glamour on the Orient Express
The Orient Express is world renowned as the world’s first international luxury express train, whisking you away to Berlin, Paris or Venice. Play detective while enjoying a five-course lunch with champagne and half a bottle of wine per person. It doesn’t take much working out that it’s one of the more expensive days out you could opt for.
Take a Bite of the Bling Burger
The £1,100 Glamburger crafted by Chef Chris Large of Honky Tonk is the world’s most expensive burger. What makes it such an exclusive eat? The patty is made from Kobe Wagyu beef and New Zealand venison, topped with black truffle brie. It also contains saffron poached lobster, Beluga caviar, hickory smoked duck egg, a mango and champagne jus, grated white truffle and maple syrup coated streaky bacon. Even the bun is a gold standard! It is covered in gold leaf and seasoned with Japanese matcha and cream mayonnaise.
Flight of Fancy
The London Helicopter company offers different packages you can choose from, including a private tour package (£1,500 for six people), whisking you 1,000 feet above and around the city for 30 minutes. The tour covers over 30 iconic London landmarks including the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace.
Live in Luxury
There is no point crunching the credit cards to go then and stay at a cut-price accommodation. Top off the tour lining in luxury in one of the apartments from London serviced apartments. This way, when inviting your new celebrity friends back for a bottle of Bollinger, the image of indulgence never slips!
