London ToursThere are so many touring options for the visitor to London. The most common way to get a quick overview of the more popular attractions London has to offer is to join a coach tour for an orientation, then return later on your own to places you'd like to examine more leisurely. Alternatively, some companies offer an unlimited hop-on, hop-off services. With these you can get off at an attraction, then hop on a later coach when you've done sightseeing, all for the price of one ticket (current prices run about £12 for an adult ticket). Coach and Bus Tours - Harrods in Knightsbridge offer a 90 minute coach tour around the city (recommended by Britain Express columnist Frederic Davies). Sign up at the store. The Big Bus Company and London Pride offer double-decker bus tours featuring hop-off service. The former also has an all-night service if you just can't wait to see the sights after you arrive (or you are suffering from jet-lag and your body hasn't caught up to local time). The Original London Sightseeing Tour has a similar hop-on/off service to the companies mentioned above. They are on the web at www.theoriginaltour.com. For a more custom-made experience, Timebus offers tours tailored to your interests using refurbished London buses, both double and single decker versions. Convenient places to board these tours include St. Martins-in-the-Fields church in Traflagar Square, Baker Street underground station, Haymarket Street just off Piccadilly Circus, and opposite Victoria Station at Grosvenor Gardens.
