Things to
See When Traveling to London
|
London is filled with tourist attractions and historic landmarks that
make it almost impossible to see and do everything that this city has
to offer. If you only visit this city for a few days, you will very
likely have to be selective about which attractions you visit because
there is just too much to do and see in such a limited amount of time.
An organized tour led by a knowledgeable guide may be a great idea for
those who are pressed for time on their trip to London. These guides
know the city well and are very experienced at packing a great deal
of attractions into a very limited amount of time. The downside to this
kind of travel, however, is that you don’t have much freedom. If you
want to linger at a particular location you risk being left behind by
the group and possibly losing your transportation back to your hotel.
Those adventurous souls who prefer to explore at their own pace would
be wise to choose a self guided tour.
Deciding what to see and do in London is no small task. The city has
so much to offer in terms of the arts, theater, museums, shopping and
restaurants. Doing your research before hand can help you to determine
just what you want to do so that you don’t waste any of your time on
your vacation deciding what to do next. Carefully, mapping out an itinerary
before hand will help you to make the most of your vacation in London.
Whether you opt to do your research through travel guides, the Internet
or advice from friends and family members who have made a similar voyage,
you are sure to find a few key tourist attractions that cannot be missed
when you travel to London.
Buckingham Palace is among the tourist attractions that make London
famous. Travelers are fascinated with the monarchy of London and having
the opportunity to see the palace first hand and witness the changing
of the guard can be an experience of a lifetime. Viewing the palace
from outside is a treat in and of itself but during Aug. and Sept. travelers
to London have the opportunity to take guided tours through some of
the staterooms of the palace.
Westminster Abbey and St. Paul’s Cathedral are two other attractions
that travelers to London should plan on visiting. Westminster Abbey
is a famous burial ground for monarchs but cultural icons such as Handel
and Chaucer are also buried in this famed location.
The London Eye which stands approximately 450 feet above the ground
gives visitor a unique perspective on London. Viewing the city from
this height gives you an unobstructed view of the city and its surroundings.
This Ferris wheel type structure gives visitors a unique way to view
the city in a glass enclosed compartment.
Besides these key attractions, London also offers a thriving theater
district, fine dining restaurants and a host of other attractions such
as museums and shopping. Although the weather in London may not always
be favorable, it is hard to deny the beauty and charm of this city.

How
I get free airline tickets & travel on a shoestring
budget...
|
Myth:
Cheapest fares are always found online.
Truth:
Wrong. Many of the wholesale airline contracts are prohibited
from being marketed on a website. If you're only searching Expedia,
Orbitz, Travelocity and the like, you're not seeing all the
really discounted fares that are available.
Myth:
Buying direct from the airlines is good.
Truth:
Wrong again. You just eliminated the possibility of buying a
consolidator airfare, which is almost always cheaper than anything
the airlines offer, and, the cheapest airfare are sold
only by travel agencies.
Myth:
The airlines sell off unsold seats cheap at the last minute.
Truth:
This myth can cost you big time or the cancellation of your
plans if you're not willing to pay the exorbitant price the
airlines want to extort from you. Believing this myth proves
you have no clue about the airlines' distribution system.
