London
With such a daunting variety of places of interest in London it
may be best to pick one place you definitely want to visit each
day and then focus on the surrounding area. Most guidebooks are
set out in this way with details of walking tours and public transport
in each area.
For example a walking tour of Whitehall and Westminster
will include Downing Street, Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey
and the Tate Gallery or a walk around the Southbank will take in
London Bridge, Tower Bridge, the South Bank Centre, the Globe Theatre.

What to do with the children
|
The Science Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Museum of
the Moving Image are the most popular sights for children, along
with London Toy Museum and Pollock's Toy Museum. They can fly a
kite on Hampstead Heath or in summer swim in the Serpentine in Hyde
Park if a break from the sightseeing is needed. Most children's
eyes will light up at the sight of Hamleys one of the world's biggest
toyshops (though not the cheapest).
Having walked a few miles round the sights or the shops you may
not feel the need to take any further exercise but if you do or
feel more like spectating there is a huge range of activities to
see or take part in from tennis to tenpin bowling.
From Macdonald's to Terence Conran's Mezzo, from African to Vietnamese
London has a huge variety of eating establishments and therefore
something for everyone.
