Hi everybody !

I am a french student and I would like to come in England for holiday to visit the country and more particularly London! Could you help me to organise my trip telling me the different places I could go and what I could do there please?

There's a million things to do in London....

Museums? There's all sorts. I like the science museum best.
Sights? The London Eye, Buckingham Palace, The Tower of London, Hyde Park, the Houses of Parliament, The river
Shopping? Spend all your money!
Eating? Spend all your money!
Entertainment? Hundres of shows, but go for the small theatres with unknown names - they are the best.
Transport? The tube, buses, cabs, cycling, walking.

Have fun!

Oh thank you very much for all these good ideas ! But can I ask you more information about a few things ?

In fact, I think I would have three days in London so I will choose between all these activities.
Could you advise me a good restaurant or a famous one where I could eat typical english food?

I think I would walk a lot to discover a lot of things so could you tell me where I would have to go to see all the famous places please ?

Why not try afternoon tea at the Dorchester - http://www.thedorchester.com/afternoon-tea - that's very English.

In order to walk to your chosen attractions, it would be best to get a map that marks them all, and you can devise a route which will take to each one. The Tourist Information offices will be able to provide very good maps - and even mark a suitable route for the places you want to see.

Enjoy your time in London

It's ok I will try the Dorchester ! It really looks great and typical. I will also go to the Tourist information in order to get a map of all the famouses things to do. But I think I will prefere to go on an adventure and discover London by myself.

Thank you very much for all these information! I'm sure I will enjoy this wonderful city !

I think whilst you're here you need to experience the other end of the spectrum as regards british food... Fish & Chips!! These are supposed to be really good http://www.allinlondon.co.uk/directory/1152/146560.php so if you're anywhere nearby then make sure you pop in!

Have a great time!!

That's a great idea! I will do that. It is true that going to London without sampling the famous Fish & Chips is a sacrilege! could you tell me where I could find a good one please ?
