My tip: I heard UK is expensive, so be sure to have enough money with you, in any case.

Visit the wax works you will be very impressed also the tower of london is worth a glance, if you like shopping then take a trip to Camden Market.

London for the most part is heavy traffic, best way to travel is by tube (Underground train), although that can be fairly chaotic, tickets can be bought for a full days travel, so you can make as many journeys as you like.

Compared to most of the rest of Europe the UK is expensive, as someone has already said - andsome parts of London are more expensive than the rest of the UK

As for what to see, it depends what you're into really, there's something for everyone; historic buildings, west end shows, shopping, strip clubs

. Carnaby Street is worth a visit. even if its just for a look about. Also Madam Tussauds, the london dungeon, the Tower, Buckingham Palace, all worth a look.

All the best

thanks for replies..

but is there an escorted tour which might be convenient for me as a first timer in London.. of course price must be reasonable..

I saw already the package rate of evansevans tour, wish there's some competition from them that i can choose... any more replies appreciated..

WBR,

my advice i live in london:

DONT BOTHER HIRING OR BOOKING ANY SERVICE, becasue their rubbish...
see if you can get some kind of tourist discount card...im sure theres loads available...

the main downside if you do pre selected package guides are that their NOT customised and alot of people that come here get really bored, best thing is to get a good GUIDE book, and travel around london yourselves, DONT show off cool gadgets, and dont wonder off into alleyways

in london theres more then plenty to see, if you get a reasonable guidebook..even walking around and tube hoping with a 1 day travel card will get you place to place.

i recoomend covent garden, picadilly circuis and the london dungeon is good for historical gore...also theres italian restayrants and thai cuisine which is good.... goto alot of the famous markets, and dont BUY anything from a tourist spot...ie.. red buses lol or union jack flags...theyre crap and will rip you off!!!

good luck

pm if you need more help
