    Tips for travel: Buy a an oyster card as many other have also mentioned. Try to buy a weekly travel card, as it gives you unlimited travel on both train and bus. Try to take your oyster card everywhere you go as paying in cash can be very expensive compared to the oyster card rates. Going for walks on a sunny summer day along the embankment and westminster bridge is beautiful, you can visit the tate modern/Britain art museum (free entry)and then watch the sun set, go on a boat cruise (few pounds), have dinner in Sohos has many wonderful Chinese restaurants or other great places to eat on a budget: Nandos, Mcdonalds, Wagamama. London has lots to offer so your going to have a nice time, with endless shops, museums, cinemas, clubs, restaurants, bars and landscapes which you could admire all day.What ever you do do not stand on the pavement with your street maps where people are about to cross the road because this blocks peoples way and during the rush hour it can get very busy. Have fun

    London is a very vibrant and cultural place. There is plenty to see and do to keep u busy for weeks! You can find food from every continent so there is something for everyone. And yes, it is worth a visit.

    One of the biggest, oldest cities in the world and probably the most diverse culturally. Food of all types, good and bad. Old castles, newest architecture. Bridges. Maybe buy a city guide or read some of the many reviews online.
