Park on the outskirts of London and travel by tube. An all day Tube ticket costs about £6 and you will get to Central London in about 45 - 50 minutes. You can hop on and off the tubes. It is the best way of getting around.

Hi, Here's what I always pass along re: what to see in London!
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! :)

Loads of NCP car parks and one is very conveniently placed near to the Tower of London. Parking is expensive and yes you'll probably need to go on the tube to visit the sights unless you fancy a very long walk.

We chose to try to drive in London and that is the one and only time the words "divorce" and "homicide" have entered our vocabulary. It's a nightmare to drive!!! Take the tube or the bus. Roads are crazy... it's like a black hole. You'll never get out.

You must use the bus and tube. Roads are clogged, crazy and complicated, car parks are expensive. And then there's the congestion charge.
