Well...I spent some days in London and it was great! But, when I came again to London from Norway one day before my flight leaves to Brazil, I need a hotel to stay near Heathrow aiport. Of sourse I thouht - Sheraton! But, what was so sad is I just arrived 00h and left 4a.m :( That was not fair!!! Just 4 hours in a such nice hotel like this! Now I have a new excuse to visit London again hehe.--Debora.P

When you are in London - you must visit the London IceBar. You are cloaked with a cape and mittens upon entry and the entry fee buys you a vodka cocktail served in a carved out block of ice! Very cool! A definite must-do!--Joannie.S

When you visit London, you must take a tour and see all the wonderful sights; including Westminster Abbey, the Tower Bridge, Tower of London, the Crown Jewels and be sure to have some fish & chips on the West Bank of the Thames.Make sure to go with family, because there is no better way to enjoy travel than spending time together!--Dolores.W

The Brittish Museum with it's world class Egyptian collection is amazing! The Rosetta Stone was truly breathtaking considering it was responsible for the translation that made ancient Egtpt come alive for us.--Kenneth.K

Of course, Trafalgar square is London must-do. Buckingham Palace is a few short blocks away, there are tons of people mulling about in the summer and best of all is the National Portrait Gallery: an underrated gem of British museums.--Kristopher.T

When visiting London you must see Westminster Abbey! Not only is it a beautiful and extraordinary cathedral, but you can see the names of all the different poets, writers and other English notables buried at the Abby. It's a giant history and literature lesson in one place! London should be on every American's wish list of places to travel. The English are very kind to American visitors and we speak the same language. They have also been our biggest allies for many, many years. While there you must also visit Piccadilly, Big Ben and Parliament and go to the theatre!--Kathryn.K

In the Westiminster area you have Big Ben and the Houses Of Parliament, Wessminster Abbey, St James Park, Buckingham Palace and the London Eye. This is a great place for walking. It's my favorite area of London.--Holly.P

When you're in London, you should definitely walk through the West End. Start in Piccadilly, head through Leicester Square (and maybe stand outside a movie premiere!), and cap it off with a jacket potato and street performers in Covent Garden.--Barbara.D

If your lucky enough, you can get a backstage tour of the show The Lion King in the West End. You'll see at the amazing sets and costumes, and they are stored hanging by cables up of the stage floor. It's amazing to see how the show comes together in such clockwork and charisma.--Marcia.S

Of course you're going to visit Hyde Park when you go to London, but be sure to do it just before sunset to get the best lighting ever.--Chris.M
