Top Ten London Sightseeing Tours For 2008 So Far

By John James


So far this year London Sightseeing Tours have seen an improvement in Visitors pre-booking their London Sightseeing Tours online. The factors we believe in this improvement are the global economy causing people to ensure they don't overspend and therefore trying to pre-book what they can and also people wanting to get as much done, to the highest quality in as little time as possible which London Sightseeing Tours provides them with Sightseeing Tours from leading Tour Suppliers such as Evan Evans.


The current ten best sellers for London Tours booked online are:


01.Discovering London Sightseeing Tour


02.Unescorted Day Trip To Paris


03.Afternoon London City Sightseeing Tour


04.London To Edinburgh Day Tour or Overnight


05.The Medieval Banquet


06.The Original London Sightseeing Tour


07.Rock and Roll London Sightseeing Tour


08.Basic Paris Day Tour


09.Winchester, Stonehenge and Bath Tour


10.Morning London Essential Sightseeing Tour


A good point to make is that people are also interested in mixing a visit to London with a trip to Paris given the easy connection via the Eurostar at an affordable price for the day. Visitors are also seeing Edinburgh as well in a Day, so don't think for one moment that London Visitors are happy just to see London they want to see England, Scotland and France and I am sure if we had trips to Wales and Ireland they may want to book those too. For now a trip to London doesn't just mean a London Sightseeing Tour, it means tours all across the UK for the visitors whilst they stay in London.


When this article has been released it is still early in the Booking Season for the Summer so it will be interesting to see how this changes over time and we will update the article later in the Summer.

Top Tourist Attractions in London

By Steve Hill


I have to say that one of my favourite places to travel to for a weekend break is London. The capital of England is steeped in history and there are many places to visit. There are attractions for everyone, young and old and in this article I will be writing about some of the one's that I would recommend people to visit.


Here are my top favourite tourist attractions in London:


1. The London Eye

2. The London Dungeon

3. Madame Tussauds

4. The Tower of London

5. The London Aquarium

6. Kew Gardens

7. Buckingham Palace

8. The Houses of Parliament

9. London Zoo

10. The Imperial War Museum

11. The Science Museum

12. St Paul's Cathedral

13. The Natural History Museum

14. Hampton Court

15. The Houses of Parliament


I would also recommend people to take a boat trip along the Thames; this gives you a good view of part of the city and is a break from all of the walking.


For children, Legoland is only a short distance away in the famous district of Windsor. My children love Legoland and insist on going back each and every year. Windsor Castle is worth a visit while you are in this area.


London offers ample shopping opportunities with some very famous stores, for example Harrods.


My wife also likes to go to a show in London. They have some of the best shows at different times of the year including; Grease, Cats and Annie. You can not beat a meal at a top restuarant followed by going to a top show.


I hope you have a great time in London.

Travel Guide - England

By Susanne Pacher


England is the heartland of Great Britain, one of the great empires throughout history. London itself is a truly modern, cosmopolitan city whose roots are firmly grounded in many centuries of history. Places like the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace (formerly the residence of Princess Diana), Trafalgar Square, Picadilly Circus and Hyde Park ring a bell everywhere.


Visit one of the many museums in London or simply enjoy a cup of afternoon tea in one of the salons and lounges throughout London. Check out Madame Tussaud's Waxworks, Westminster Abbey, or St. Paul's Cathedral.


Outside of London check out Windsor Castle. Overall, England is a veritable treasure chest for castle-lovers. One of the typical ways to travel in England is to enjoy the fabulous hospitality of a private bed & breakfast. The Cotswolds are a beautiful area with rolling hills, featuring stone houses just the way you always ipictured a truly English landscape. Stratford-Upon-Avon is the birthplace of William Shakespeare which is must see for every Shakespeare fan. Performances by the Royal Shakespeare Company will delight theatre buffs.


If you like bigger cities, check out Bristol, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham and Liverpool, home of the Beatles. Britain’s Roman history is apparent in many places, including Hadrian's Wall near Newcastle. And a visit to Stonehenge will bring you up close to one of history's mysteries.


England’s lovely coastline can be enjoyed in one of many resort towns. Southend-on-Sea officially offers some of the best beaches of Europe and is well known for its pier, its theatre and music events. In the south east of England, Canterbury's cathedral is a splendid example of medieval British architecture. In Dover you can catch ferries to the European continent.


As one of the world’s most famous university towns, Oxford has a scenic riverside setting with museums, shops, restaurants and a vibrant entertainment scene. Cambridge, its rival city, has winding streets and splendid architecture and is perfect for a daytrip from London.


Brighton is a beautiful seaside city with gorgeous architecture. The Isle of Wight offers a serene getaway from the hustle and bustle of the cities. Bournemouth is a holiday resort town on the South East coast of England with award-winning beaches, parks and gardens. A visit to England can be the perfect combination of culture, history and relaxation.
