Student Visa
For full‑time study at a licenced UK institution. Usually valid for the course length plus a short grace period after it ends (depends on different course durations).

Requires sponsorship from a UK employer. Usually granted for up to 5 years at a time, and can be extended as many times as you want till you meet the requirements.
Graduate Visa
For those who have completed an eligible UK degree and are looking to work or job hunt. Valid for 2 years, or 3 years for PhD/doctoral grads.

You can visit the UK year-round, but what you experience changes with the seasons: blooming parks and long daylight in late spring, golden foliage in autumn, and Christmas markets in winter. Use this quick guide to match weather, crowd levels and prices with your plans.
April to June
What to Expect: Late spring, easing into early summer: mild days, frequent April showers and temperatures that climb from about 9–15 °C.
Perfect For: London's parks and the Chelsea Flower Show, countryside walks and longer daylight for sightseeing.
Tourist Flow: Moderate, busier than March, but quieter than the peak of July-August.
Flights and Hotel Rates: Shoulder-season deals are still around if you book early.
Return Airfare from India (Approx.): ₹45,000–₹65,000*
Keep in Mind: Pack layers and a rain jacket. “April showers" are real.
September to November
What to Expect: Autumn temperatures range from 9-18°C, with October typically the wettest month; the weather turns noticeably colder by late November.
Perfect For: Fall colours in the Lake District and Scotland, fewer queues at museums and city festivals.
Tourist Flow: Moderate to low, post‑summer calm.
Flights and Hotel Rates: Often cheaper than summer; good value on mid‑week stays.
Return Airfare from India (Approx.): ₹40,000–₹60,000*
Keep in Mind: Carry an umbrella and some warm clothes. Showers are common, and evenings get chilly.
December to March
What to Expect: Winter temperatures range from 0-7°C, with the coldest months being January and February. December is milder and festive, while March begins to ease, but can still feel wintry.

Flights and Hotel Rates: Lowest in Jan-Feb, but watch out for festive surges in late December.
Return Airfare from India (Approx.): ₹35,000–₹55,000*

Note: The weather conditions, tourist flow, airfare estimates and travel costs mentioned above are indicative and may vary based on your travel dates, airline and booking time. Always check with official sources or your travel provider for the most accurate and up-to-date information before planning your trip.
1. London's Indian Food Universe: It's often said London has more Indian restaurants than New Delhi, so finding butter chicken at midnight is never a problem.
2. Chicken Tikka Masala = "National Dish": The UK famously embraces chicken tikka masala as a national favourite.
3. 100 Million Cups of Tea a Day: Brits drink about 100 million cups of tea daily, perfect if you're a chai loyalist.
4. 300+ Languages in London: Over 300 languages are spoken in London, so you'll hear everything from Punjabi to Gujarati on the Tube.
5. Royal Events Can Mean a Day Off: Big royal weddings and ceremonies often turn into national holidays. So, expect parades, flags and packed pubs.
6. Four Countries, One Trip: A single UK visit lets you tick off England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, encompassing four distinct cultures, all with one visa.
7. Free Museums Galore: Many of the UK's top museums, like the British Museum and National Gallery, are free to enter.
8. The King Owns (Some) Swans: By tradition, the monarch owns unmarked mute swans on certain UK waters. Quirky, but true.
9. Scotland's National Animal is a Unicorn: Yes, really, the unicorn is Scotland's official national animal.
10. Many Faiths, Many Places of Worship: While Christianity is the official religion, you'll find temples, gurdwaras, mosques, synagogues and more across the country.
Currency
Apps like XE provide the current GBP-INR rate, and Wise allows you to hold GBP and pay later. Niyo Global offers zero-forex markup cards that utilise Visa exchange rates, allowing you to spend abroad without the usual 3-5% fee.
Accommodation and Hotel Booking
Apps like Booking.com and Airbnb are the easy, everywhere options. Additionally, HotelTonight is ideal for last-minute London/Edinburgh deals. Price trackers like Kayak help you spot drops before you book.
Navigation
The local favourite is Citymapper for real‑time tube and bus routes, step‑free options and delay alerts; TfL and Google Maps back you up city‑wide.
Transport
For trains, use Trainline or National Rail Enquiries. In London, the TfL Oyster app tracks fares and capping. Omio is handy for stitching buses/trains across the UK and Europe.
Sightseeing and Events
Book Warner Bros. Studio tours, Stonehenge day trips, and skip-the-line tickets on GetYourGuide; find gigs, theatre, and festivals on Time Out or Eventbrite; consider Go City for multi-attraction passes.
Food Delivery
Famous apps like Just Eat, Deliveroo and Uber Eats dominate, use whichever has the restaurant (and deal) you want.
Indian travel to the UK is booming: the UK received 7.66 lakh Indian visitors in 2024, and Indians made up 25% of all UK visitor visas in the year to June 2024. The UK is even targeting £1 billion in spend from Indian tourists by 2026, so you're far from alone on that London-bound flight!
At the same time, more Indians are actively protecting their trips, as travel insurance sales jumped to 18.95% in Q1 2025. It's a clear sign that travellers don't want flight delays, lost bags or passport troubles to eat into their holiday budget.
Picture this: you land at Heathrow and your checked bag doesn't. Reliance Insurance steps in with baggage delay coverage so you can pick up essentials, rebook what you must and still make your afternoon slot at the London Eye.
Your Reliance UK travel plan is designed to cover typical on-the-road problems, such as emergency medical expenses, passport loss, baggage delay, flight delays & missed connections, among others. Buy your preferred policy online in minutes, keep the policy PDF on your phone and your Reliance Self-i App, and travel knowing real help is one call away.
As of July 2025, £1 = ₹117. Rates move daily, so check just before you book or swipe. Use a forex card or a zero-fee international debit/credit card to avoid hidden fees; carry a small amount of cash for small shops or rural areas.
Note: The given currency conversion rate was taken on 24.07.2025, at 05:00 pm IST and is subject to change. Please ensure you check the current Rupee to <currency> conversion rates before proceeding.
Tick off London's classics like the Tower Bridge, British Museum and West End shows. Then ride the train to Edinburgh's Royal Mile, hike the Lake District, road‑trip the Scottish Highlands and tour Stonehenge or the Cotswolds. Book popular tickets, such as the Harry Potter Studio Tour, early, as they sell out quickly.
Yes. The UK uses Type G plugs (three rectangular pins) and a 230 V, 50 Hz supply. Carry a universal adapter (ideally with USB‑A/USB‑C ports). Most modern phone/laptop chargers are dual-voltage, but always check the label before plugging in.
Yes, you need a Standard Visitor visa for tourism. From 15 July 2025, many work and study applicants will get e-visas instead of physical stickers, so keep your UKVI account details handy. Tourists must still apply for a UK visa as usual.
No, it isn't mandatory, but it's strongly recommended because healthcare, delays and lost baggage can get expensive. Many Indian travellers now buy coverage even when the rules don't require them to.
Look for high medical cover (up to USD 500,000*), trip delay/cancellation, baggage loss or delay, passport loss and personal liability coverage. A 24/7 helpline and cashless treatment options, along with a guarantee of payment, are significant pluses. Your Reliance international travel plan will thankfully cover everything within affordable policy rates.
A&E (emergency) and GP visits are generally free, but most other hospital treatments are chargeable for visitors. That's why a solid medical cover is useful so that you won't be stuck with a big hospital bill.
They're usually excluded, so always declare your medical history and read the policy wording as non‑disclosure can void claims. If you have a condition, choose a plan that clearly outlines how emergency stabilisation is handled.
Usually, yes, as long as you ask before your policy expires. Simply contact Reliance Care, share your new return date, and pay the additional premium. If you've already crossed the expiry date or are hospitalised, extensions may not be allowed, so check your policy wording.
