A Guide to London

Firstly, don't forget to take double decker excursions. The excursions take you to some interesting places, and you can even ride on top of the bus!

Then, you can get to see the Buckingham Palace. Here, Queen Elizabeth II (now dead) lives here, she even has her own room! Royalty rules!

Also, we didn't forget about Big Ben. The clock tower is connected to another tower, and it's a base jumper or skydiver's big dream!

Then, Trafalgar Square and West End. It has lots of stores, buildings, and theatres.

Finally, you can go to any chip shop. Here, the fish and chips served here taste and smell good. Yum!

Love that you’ve included Trafalgar Square! For anyone interested, it’s not just shops around there. There's the National Gallery right on the square with free entry to see some incredible art. And for those who are into more obscure history, take a walk down to the nearby Churchill War Rooms. It's an underground bunker turned museum—really gives you a feel of what wartime was like for Churchill and his staff.

Since you mentioned the West End, I gotta throw in my two cents. Don't just admire the buildings, catch a show if you can. There's always something on, from classics like 'Les Misérables' to new hits. And you can often score last-minute tickets for cheap at the TKTS booth in Leicester Square!

Can confirm, fish and chips are a MUST in London. If you're near the West End, check out the Golden Union Fish Bar. Their batter is just perfect 👌 And if you're looking for something a bit extra, some places serve battered halloumi too. Absolute heaven!

Just a little fyi, the Queen actually passed away and King Charles is the reigning monarch now. Would recommend checking the latest before you visit! Also, don't miss the Changing the Guard ceremony—truly a spectacle!

LOL the queen has her own room? No way! Too funny. Next you're gonna tell me they've got a whole room just for the crown jewels. 😂😂😂

Double decker buses are cool and all but the tube is where it's at. It's like the veins of the city. And it's so much faster. But still, ride a bus at least once for the experience!

Hey! Love the enthusiasm about London. However, Big Ben is definitely not a spot for base jumping—it's a heavily secured area. For an incredible view, I'd recommend the Shard, or if they're brave, the O2 Arena climb. Also, the chip shops are amazing, could not agree more! If anyone reading this gets a chance, go to Poppie’s Fish & Chips—it's like stepping back in time!

Oi mate, the bit about Buckingham and the Queen gave me a good chuckle. Just so ya know, Buckingham Palace tours are only sometimes available coz the royal fam's still using it. Also, Big Ben's not really for base jumping, right? You might want to mention the actual tours of the Houses of Parliament when they are on, absolutely fascinating stuff if you're a history buff.
