ondon is one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations, attracting millions of visitors every year. As a result, gaining access to some of its most popular restaurants, bars, hotels and world-famous sites and events can sometimes be a challenge — and that’s why Amex’s Concierge services can be so valuable even to the most experienced travellers. Designed to provide a seamless, elevated travel experience for Amex Premium cardholders, Amex concierge services make ground transport, premium hotel and restaurant reservations and tickets to exclusive events convenient, exclusive and accessible.

After enjoying the premium on-board service of Air Canada business class and arriving at Heathrow, Zerillo stopped first at the Fairmont Windsor Park Hotel in Windsor, a pleasant drive that took only 20 minutes from the airport, as opposed to the two hours it might take to transfer from city airport to country in any major North American city. The Fairmont Windsor, a splendid hotel situated in a enchanted park-like forest of lush foliage and mature trees, is just steps away from Windsor Deer Park and its hundreds of deer, adjacent to Windsor Castle. Members of the Royal Family are
known to occasionally be spotted enjoying the private tennis courts at Windsor Park. Located on the edge of the historic Windsor Great Park, this luxury spa hotel is surrounded by 40 acres of open green space and beside a tranquil lake.
