Buy a travel card for the tube (underground) - it costs around £5 per day for zones 1 &2, and a good tourist guide map. - You can usually find a machine that sells them at the tube station for about £3.
Get on an open top tour bus - that way you'll get to see all the important sights. Visiting individual places can be very expensive! I would recommend the Tower of London, and shopping in Covent Garden.
I used to live in London, and I would say walk everywhere you can, you'll see a lot more. And keep an eye out for small cafe's where food will be slightly cheaper than say Pret a Manger/ Costa/ Starbucks.
Oh and most importantly - don't for get to take an umbrella!! Enjoy your trip!

Some must-sees in London are:
The London Eye (one of the biggest ferris wheels in the world)
Big Ben
Harrods (best mall in England)
Buckingham Palace
You should bring a raincoat definently. Very rainy there! Get a London guide book and a map. Have fun!

You should visit kensington palace,. buckingham palace, Harrods, Trafalgar square,Westminster Abbey,St. Paul's Cathedral, Big Ben, The Parliament, Tower Bridge, Tower of London,
Leicester Road, London Eye,,Covent Garden,
HydePark, Knightbridge road and Birghton Seaside
Most important to bring with you is a video cam. If you are travelling using buses and train for a day, I suggest you get a 1 day travel card during off peak hours (10-2:55). it costs 6.70 pound. Peark hours (3pm onwards) will cost you 11.00 pound,
Happy trip.

First in your home state go to a museum and look at the history part. Then pack some like badge carpi pants and a red and blue and white shirt.When your there take one of the buses and they will properly give you a map.
