Crossing London City CTR possible?

Hi,

This week a group of Dutch will make a tour through Southern England. On our last day, we are based NW of London, and would like to do a crossing of the London City CTR. Proposed route: From N(VRP Banbury Reservoir?), abeam Canary Wharf, to S(VRP Isle of Dogs?) and then East to Rochester, staying clear EGR160. So west of City Airport and east of the City centre is the intention. I have seen multiple VFR Reporting Points associated with London City, which suggests VFR traffic is common. We are all experienced pilots used to flying in controlled airspace.

Would this be an option at all, or do we have to forget this reckless plan? Anyone experience with this, or good advice on routing?

Thanks in advance for your comments.
