London has long been considered one of the top tourist destinations in the world. With a wealth of things to do, its vibrant atmosphere and cultural diversity, London is a city that truly captures the imagination.

If you're new to London or planning your first visit, taking in the sites is a must. The London Underground train network which links each part of the city together (or the Tube as it's known colloquially), is a quick and relatively cheap way to get around the city. However, it should be noted that the Underground is very overcrowded during rush hour times (from around 7.30am to 10am then again from around 4.30pm to 7.30pm) and can be unbearably hot during the summer months. You should also bear in mind that whilst the Tube is inexpensive, you'll see far more of the Capital and get a proper feel for the place if you're at street level.

It is conceivable to walk to each of the main attractions (Buckingham Palace, Westminster and the Tower of London to name a few) but if you don't fancy trekking the streets with a map for hours, it might be more sensible to hop on a bus. Designated sightseeing buses with ...
... open tops depart regularly from Trafalgar Square, Marble Arch, Embankment Station and Piccadilly Circus. If you're feeling a little more adventurous, you can try navigating London yourself on the red public buses.

However, if you're looking to see London the luxury way, you might like to consider booking a chauffeur driven limo. Many taxi and limo firms in London offer London sightseeing tours for tourists wishing to experience the Capital in a little more comfort. Your chauffeur will pick you up in a prestige vehicle from your accommodation at a time chosen by you. You are free to choose which sights you wish to visit and how long you wish to spend at sight- your driver will wait for you while you enjoy each location. Alternatively, if you are unsure of what London has to offer, your chauffeur can plan a route for you, taking in all the top attractions.

Whilst London chauffeur tours are more costly than hopping on a London bus or taking the Underground, they really take the stress out of seeing the Capital, allowing you to enjoy the city without worrying about getting lost. They also give you an invaluable opportunity to see a lot of the city in a very short space of time so you can see which areas interest you and would be worth a second look before the end of your trip. Your chauffeur will also be able to point out places of interest that are overlooked by the commercial bus tours, the vibrant markets of Portobello and Spitalfields for example, and not to mention some of the recent famous and familiar sights that you have seen at the cinema and on TV, such as Notting Hill ,and of course the famous Abbey Road and Carnaby Street, as well as recommending the best restaurants and other attractions that are a must when in London.

Your hotel will be able to recommend a reliable London chauffeur tours service and can aid you with the booking if required. They will also have maps of the city available and leaflets for open top bus tours and other attractions.

Enjoy your trip!
