London on a budget in 2026: real costs, free museums and an honest 7-day itinerary

London has a reputation as an unaffordable city, and it's half true — only half. The pound near $1.27 makes American visitors wince at pub menus, but anyone who understands how London works discovers one of Europe's most generous capitals for outsiders. Seven of the world's biggest museums are free. Transport caps at £8.10 a day no matter how many rides you take. A Tesco sandwich runs £4. Heathrow Express charges £25 for what the Piccadilly Line delivers for £6.30. This guide tackles what international travelers need in 2026: nonstop flights from JFK or LAX from $480 on Norse or JetBlue, honest mid-range stays in Bloomsbury, paid attractions that earn their ticket (Tower of London) and those that don't (Buckingham Palace tour in August), a Cambridge day trip for £24, and West End musicals from the TKTS booth on Leicester Square for £35-60.
