You can chose a number of different bus routes that will bring you all over the city. The best is the yellow and blue lines. The red, (I think), forces you to Harrods. Harrods is okay to visit but you might as well be in Bloomingdales with a significant price increase. See the buildings. They are spectacular.

Big Bus Tour

When you go to London, you want to ride on that double decker tour bus. Well ladies and gentleman I have found the best bus around, the Big Bus Tour buses. All you do is buy a ticket at their store in London or have your concierge at the hotel get one for you. Then you look for the burgundy and tan buses, and you hop on. The commentators are live locals who tell you about the sites you pass. There are designated stops along the way and if you don't want to get off, don't, but if you do, just tell the commentator (he stands right in the middle of the top deck), and they let you off. Shop, look around, do whatever, then when you want to go somewhere else, look for another Big Bus, they are all over and you just hop from bus to bus until you are satisfied and want to go home. The tickets are good for 24 hours so if you buy one at noon one day it is good till noon the next day. A great experience!
