Tour London the capital city
London attracts more American visitors than any other European city. Dig deep enough and you'll find Roman, Saxon and Medieval remnants but, you'll also find skyscrapers and imposing Victorian architecture. The past is alive and well in London, you just have to know how to look for it. Over the centuries, all the outlying villages have become consolidated into one huge and wonderful city. The size alone can intimidate the first time visitor. Here's a few suggestions to make your first journey to London stress free.
Take an orientation tour. Get your bearings by taking an orientation tour, such as those offered on the red double-decker buses. Take the tour on the very first afternoon, or the next morning at the latest.
Be sure your accommodations are near a subway (tube) stop. Don't even think about renting a car within the city. Streets are typically congested, drivers are aggressive and parking is nearly nonexistent. Not to mention you'd be driving in the left lane. Try to stay within a ten minute, (or less) walk from a subway stop. For convenience, purchase a subway pass, which allows speedy entrance and exit of the subway. Buying individual tickets will slow you down and cost more over the long run.
Study a city map and subway map before leaving home. You need not be an expert, just get a feel for the place to lessen confusion. For example, Tower Bridge is on the East side of the city, and Kensington Gardens |
| is on the West side of the city, and so on.
Don't expect to cover all the sites of the city in one trip. You could return to London five times and still not see everything the city has to offer. On your first trip, narrow down your list to a manageable number. Traveling within the city, even with their efficient subway system will still take a chunk of time from your day. Going from one section of the city to another could take forty minutes to an hour."Long Waits at Sites" In other words, don't plan to see such major sites as the British Museum, Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum | and the Tower of London all in a single day. Unrealistic sightseeing schedules will leave you frustrated and exhausted try a london limo.Plan for crowds. London gets millions of visitors year-round, not just in the summer months. Don't kid yourself, even if you go in November or January, the tourists will be there in full force.There are a few "must-sees" for any first time visitor to London. Here's a list. Changing of the Guard: This is perhaps London's greatest spectacle and one dating back hundreds of years. It takes place year round outside Buckingham Palace. The Palace itself, the Queen's official residence, is open each year for two months in late summer. Visitors can see the magnificent State Rooms containing some of the Queen's fine collection of paintings and furniture.
