Our Featured Guest for Sunday, April 6, 2025 is Jessica Dante
In this episode, we chat with Jessica Dante, founder of Dante Media and the savvy travel guru behind the viral “Love and London” brand. From uncovering classic tourist scams to dishing out honest advice on what to skip (sorry, Madame Tussauds!), Jessica shares how she built a million-strong following by helping travelers have smarter, more authentic adventures in London and Paris.
London-based New Yorker Jessica Dante is a trailblazing figure in travel and social media, having built an online business with a community of over 900,000 followers. Dante Media is a travel media company helping tourists in London and Paris to avoid the overhyped and overdone so they can have the trip of a lifetime. Now a hugely successful digital entrepreneur, Jessica is a savvy marketer and a strong advocate for businesses building an email list – something she wishes she had done from the start, knowing that’s where brands generate their biggest revenue.
Jess started by launching Love and London in 2015 with just a few Youtube videos about how to experience London as a tourist. She didn’t know much about Youtube and what it took to create a successful channel, but through tons of research and trial and error, she saw success in just a few short months. As her Youtube channel grew, so did the Love and London brand and the audience’s trust in Jess’s ability to help them have an amazing time in London. She started to offer paid travel guides, vacation photography services, trip planning calls, and more. Revenue grew, and she took on a team of freelancers to help her create a bigger and better brand.
Love and London now reaches 6-8 million London tourists and fans each month across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and email and has become the go-to place online for London travel advice. In 2024, Love and Paris was launched. Love and London sells digital travel guides for London in our shop, and have worked with major brands like Walks, Google Pixel, Canon, and more. We also launched Love and Paris in early 2024.
