London

GETTING AROUND LONDON If you are not acquainted with London we strongly recommend taking a sightseeing bus. The Original Tour offers a comprehensive tour of the major things to see. You can hop-on and hop-off at any of the 90 stops throughout the city. Guided Walks are fun ways to get to know a particular aspect of the city. Two companies with excellent tours are The Original London Walks Company, (0)20 7624 3978, and Historical Walks of London (0)20 8668 4019 Cabs London cabbies are really knowledgeable and make excellent sightseeing guides. The Underground (Tube), and Buses: Bus and tube lines crisscross the city. The tube map is easy to understand and each line is identified on a map with a different color. We find the most economical thing to do is to buy a Travelcard which can be purchased for a day, week or a month and covers unlimited use of tubes, buses. Most tourists only need zone 1-2.
