London breakfast and wifi
If it’s your first time in London, make sure to get yourself acquainted with the London Underground (or “Tube”) as soon as possible. It is the fastest way to get yourself to all the familiar sights, and most points of interest will advertise with the nearest tube station. On arrival at a tube station, find yourself the brochure “How to get from here” which will show you the streets in the direct neighbourhood of the tube station, and major tourist attractions will be marked. A day card can be purchased from machines at the station, starting at 4 pounds. A travel pass for use in all of central London on all public transportation is about 7 pounds, and if you are really into visiting tourist sights, look for the London pass, which includes admission to many attractions. The disadvantage, of course, of travelling by Underground, is that you don’t get a nice overview of the city itself. I enjoy taking one of the Hop on Hop off tour buses, which sell you a ticket for 24 hours and takes you to the major areas of the city. Often I don’t even get off, I just write down places I want to revisit later on my trip, and use the Tube to get there. Prices range from 22 to 36 pounds per day, so be sure to get your tickets on the lower end of that scale. Another money saving tip can be your breakfast. Often hotels don’t include breakfast and charge up to 15 pounds for an English breakfast. Know that there are plenty of pubs that serve breakfast at 5 pounds, and McDonald’s charges 3 pounds (including wifi internet access).
