'Mode': AROUND
Category: Bus
Getting TO/AROUND: The Big Bus – a hop on & off bus with live commentary - is perfect for your first time in London. The price also includes a great walking tour (there are a few to choose from – we took the “Royal London Walk,” ending up at Buckingham Palace) and a cruise on the Thames. Sit on the upper open deck for a perspective you won't get any other way. If you are visiting London in the winter, you can still do this. Just make sure you bring along a hat, scarf and gloves, because it can get pretty cold up there. The guides know a lot and some are very funny. We had one with a very strong Northern accent which was hard to understand at first, but eventually the penny dropped…Check the map before you set out and decide which attractions you want to see first. If there are any places you haven't covered by the time the day's over, you will now have your bearings and be able to get to them on your own, using the Underground. There are two routes to choose from: the Red Tour or the Blue Tour (the buses are marked), which cover different parts of the city. The Big Bus operates every day of the year except Christmas Day.

mallyak Mon Sep 8, 2008 10:06 UTC We were greeted by a cold and wet London in Peak summer...no clear blue skies! | nora_south_africa Sun Apr 6, 2008 06:11 UTC when I visit London sometime I must do this bus.... | Nemorino Fri May 18, 2007 22:11 UTC Here's another one for your list: brainstorm and brainwave. For the British a brainstorm is roughly the opposite of what we mean by it. Also my little grandchildren have to put up with me saying diaper when their mother says nappy. | tiabunna Fri Apr 13, 2007 13:16 UTC Ah yes, separated by a common language! The Oz version is somewhere between: we talk on mobile phones, put petrol in our cars, drive on the freeway and try to avoid trucks. |
