London recognised at Enjoy England awards

24 Apr 2009

Visit London has celebrated the success that the capital enjoyed in the Enjoy England Awards for Excellence last night (23 April).

One of the biggest winners was London Walks, a company that offers more than 400 different walking tours throughout the city, visiting various destinations and exploring different themes.

London Walks picked up the top award in the 'best tourism experience' category for 'providing a fun, green, entertaining and value for money experience all year round'.

The National Theatre won the silver award in the 'best access for all tourism' section and the Science Museum picked up the same accolade in the category recognising attractions with more than 100,000 visitors.

Visit London chief executive Sally Chatterjee said: 'We are delighted that such a diverse range of London attractions were successful in this year's awards.

'London prides itself on offering a sheer range and depth of attractions, events and history in our city for both business and leisure visitors.'

Manchester was also recognised at the awards event for its International Festival and Manchester Art Gallery, along with the Centre for Life in Newcastle.
