Do we have any Audities list members from London, England??
I'm looking for a tour guide that can drive me around London for a day!>>>
I' m not from London, but had a fortunate layover in London in '96 and
wanted to see the city in a day. i'd recommend getting a pass on one of the
doubledecker tour buses, which are all over the place -- get a seat on top
in the open air if the weather permits, and take the approx 2 hour tour
around town. do the complete loop to see all the main sites, then make
another loop and get off at the particular stops that interest you. we
were in town starting at about 4 pm one day and left the next day at about
the same time. we got off and spent time at picadilly circus, westminster
abbey, and tower of london in particular, as well as other stops of less
interest. had dinner in a chinese restaurant in Soho (just like in
Werewolves of London!) fun stuff. i'm sure this is the touristy thing to
do, and a local might do a better job of getting you to the cool/trendy
places, but the bus was good for us!
