[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am planning a similar trip to London and Paris for this summer, with my 11YO DS. I have never been to either so would like to ask a few questions for advice.

Is there a best plan as to when to work the train to Paris into the trip? If we go to Paris during the middle of the trip, we'd be paying double for lodging those nights in both London and Paris. Is it best to take the train to Paris during the end of the trip, after checking out of London lodging?

Also, would love some recommendations as to where to stay in London. Would love to hit all these popular sights as well, so just looking for an area that might be best to stay in that is convenient to these sights/activities.[/quote]

I'd definitely do Paris at the end of the trip - why would you want to pay for accommodation in 2 places? In London, I'd just stay somewhere with good tube access, and if cost of accommodation is of concern, then stay out of zone 1 and stay in zone 2 (look at the tube map for guidance). FYI the circle and district lines are pretty awful and slow so I'd choose to be near the jubilee, central or piccadilly lines. [/quote]
