Transportation:

The tube, the bus, whatever you fancy: Transport for London. You should be able to find everything you need right there.

What to do:

London is, as you may know, the biggest city in Europe. It's nigh impossible to do everything there is to do in London, even after living in the centre of the city for 10 years! With that in mind, it most certainly is possible (even probable) that you can make the most of whatever time you do have here. The London Tourist Board has everything you need to know about the 'stuff to do' while you're enjoying your time in the greatest city in Europe...
