To a lot of people, that sounds really lame. But it's really fun in London!
We once took one of the sightseeing trips. Just be sure you get off and on often -- you can get on the next bus that comes by. We bought a ticket that included a tour of the Tower, then a boat trip from the Tower to Parliament. Then caught the bus again there.
On the way, it passed the theatre where I had tickets for that evening -- so, instead of taking a taxi, I just jumped on the bus again. Then took the taxi home.
Maybe the neatest part of that particular trip, though, was coming back from a business meeting in Nottingham (sp?), the company we were visiting flew us back on their company helicopter -- landing at a heliport on the Thames. FANTASTIC! All of the beautiful estates, etc.
As I said, I can't wait to go back again.
