People from or that have gone to London...help!

Post by Tyler. »

So I'm going to Europe later in the year, most of it is with a tour group so we don't need to do much prior planning, but around 5-8 days we'll be in London on our own (my friend and I) so we need to plan out what we're gonna do in London so we don't get there then waste time and miss out on things...

So what are the things that I should DEFINITELY visit in London? I know there's that wax museum, Big Ben, aaaaaand well gone blank now. So yeah, help me out please! :D

Adding those to the list. Also it'd be cool if anyone knows any lesser known places that are good to visit. Things that you wouldn't find on a tourism campaign or something...

I want to fly, Can you take me far away, Give me a star to reach for, Tell me what it takes, And I’ll go so high, I’ll go so high, My feet won’t touch the ground, its my wings, That pull the strings, I bought these dreams, That all fall down

Covent Garden (TGI Fridays) ? Hamley's toy store? Oxford Street? Leicester Square? And if you can watch a show, you can get cheaper tickets in Leicester square for them, War Horse is amazing or any of the decent musicals... :D
