Question

For 1 day trip in London, which is the best and cheapest choice for sightseeing? (This will be my first time in London)
- Take hop-on/off bus tour
- Take a walk and train to the place myself
- Other options

Answer 1

In 1 day you can see only a fraction of London, but you can best utilize time by taking the hop on/off bus tour. They have several lines Red/Blue etc. Any of them will be fine. Enjoy! I like the city a lot; been there several times.

Answer 2

Hi, Here's what I always pass along!
Wow...you're in for a treat! Wear good walking shoes because London is a superb walking city. Bring a good map of the city and begin. Be a happy tourist and first hop on one of the major red double decker tour buses which afford you a perfect overview of London and you can "hop on and off" as often as you please...some for two days! I love www.theoriginaltour.com ! Highlights (see www.londonwalks.com): National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, Tate Modern Museum, London Eye, Covent Gardens (great shops n restaurants), St. Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, see a play!, Harrods, Harvey Nichols, Tower of London.
Know London has many beautiful parks which can be your oasis when needing a rest. Kensington Gardens in one of the world's wealthiest areas - See Princess Di's Kensington Palace and shop Kensington High St. and wander up Church St. for boutiques and such. Nearby: Royal Albert Hall, Science Museum, Natural History Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum. Hyde Park connects to Kensington Gardens. Explore Chelsea for boutiques as well. St. James Park - beautiful, sole restaurant inside. Green Park - high tea at the Ritz, Fortnum & Mason, Picadilly Circus (think Times Square). Shopping streets: Oxford, Bond, check for weekly markets...BUY "TIMEOUT LONDON" weekly magazine. Boat trip on the Thames - a must. Don't forget - you can take the EUROSTAR Chunnel train to Brussels or Paris for day trips (2.5 hrs +/- each way!) Hope this helps. Have a fantastic time! :)

Answer 3

The cheapest would be to buy a 1 day travel card. Central bus routes are very easy to navigate so you can still see a lot with a good guide book. Most major museums and galleries are free.

Answer 4

Take the bus tour. You see a lot of places and they tell you about them too.
