This guide to London focuses on Westminster, Whitehall, the City, West End, and London's "villages". It covers all the major sights, area by area, in an easily navigable format. Descriptions of tourist attractions include the Tower of London, Houses of Parliament, London Eye, Westminster Abbey, and St Paul's Cathedral, as well as London's major museums. The guide also contains background historical information, advice on shopping and entertainment and the low-down on eating out. There is an A-Z of practical information and listings of recommended hotels and restaurants. Special features range from the changing of the guard to Sir Christopher Wren. Excursions to Kew Gardens and Greenwich are also outlined. Maps show Central London, the West End and excursions, and there are dozens of colour photographs throughout.

Great Book - Lacking the Underground,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: London Pocket Guide (Berlitz Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
Nothing much to say. If you are looking for a nice guidebook then this is it. You will need to find something else if you want a map of the underground. I have no idea why they left that off.
