If you're looking for an easy way to see London; hop on the Tube at High Barnet and make your way to Victoria or even Baker Street or Piccadilly Circus, where you can take a number of bus tours dependent on what you want to see. Not cheap, but worth it for ease of use and fabulous snippets of information. Usually purchase a ticket that lasts for 24 hours and includes a river cruise. Thoroughly recommend. Always take my own house guests on one!
