London 2012 Olympics!!?? Please answer!!?

Question

Hi everyone!! I have always wanted to go to London and am very interested in going to the 2012 Olympics. Does anyone have any idea how much it would cost to travel from California to London for about a week? Also does anyone know of any fun sights to see while in London near the Olympics? Also how far in advanced should we book a flight/ get tickets to the Olympics and will ticket prices increase as the games draw near?

Anyone with experience going to the Olympics or any info about the Olympics please answer!!! All answers are greatly appreciated!! =) Thanks to everyone who answers!!

Answer 1

Hey. I'm English so should be able to help. Book it about a year in advance. or 9 months.

In london you can do lots, see, the touristy parts are. Tower of london, london eye, houses or parliment, the aquariems, river cruise on a duck, picadilly circus. There is loads to see and do. You don't have to plan it you can do it all on the day. Just be warned there are alot of rude people in london, i'm a country boy and hate the citys. So if you say hello to someone you'll prob be told to go away, as they will think you are a tramp. There are alot of homless people in London, so you need to learn to say no! If you wana know more, just email me

Answer 2

Answer 3

I agree with the first answer. Who knows how much currency will be in 4 years? Save up money just in case.

Answer 4

I want to go back home also!!!!!!!! And for the Olympics!!!!!! You could go on like a website like Orbitz and stuff and find an estimated price. Oooo, you can see Buckingham palace...and ride on double decker busses.

  Book it like now if you can, cuz it'll be mighty cheap!

  Maybe I'll see you there! :)
