- If traveling on the train, it might be worthwhile to risk not actually purchasing a ticket. They did not check our tickets on either the way there or the way back.
- Avoid Mr. Wu's in Chinatown, unless absolutely desperate for food. NB - Chinese food is actually more expensive than most other food options, so don't think going to Chinatown will be eay on your wallet.
- Can get theatre tickets relatively cheaply if you do student rush.
- The lions in Trafalgar Sq. are fun to climb on.
- Westminister Cathedral is not the big tourist attraction - Westminister ABBEY is. Go there and see the dead people.
- If you miss the actual touring hours at St. Paul's, try to sneak in for a service. You can also sneak into the crypt and see more dead people if you look suave.
- Museums are free. Everything else costs a decent amount of poundage.
- Look for the Cadbury chocolate machines in the tube... And always "Mind the Gap!"
GRANTCHESTER
- A short boke ride or walk southeast of Cambridge (Approximately thirty minutes on foot)
- Follows River Cam through cow country to a small little town with thatched roofs and an apple orchard
- Can get some desserts in the apple orchard for relatively decent prices (Recommend chocolate tart)
