    No, the only thing is (with the exception of the museums) "Will his pockets be deep enough" ?

    the main problem with london is the places to see are spread over a wide area,i would make my way to the top of park lane/marble arch and jump on one of the open top bus then you can jump on /off the buses all day and see a lot of london in a day,your staying in mayfair which is next to park lane then walk up by the car showrooms and get the bus
