It's not that hard to travel to London. Well, if you plan your trip nicely, you can see the whole of the history in less than 5 days that would include clubbing and little trips outside the cosmopolitan as well. Lonely planet is indeed a great guide for the world traveller but I would rather opt for the suggestion from those who are living in London - friends to be precise. I don't know much about France though but it's not far from london if you take a ferry ride from down south Dover. btw, take waterproof clothes, August is the season!

Youth hostels are not only cheap but a lot of fun. try to find youth hostels around your town, if in the US, they can be very resourceful. have not been to the UK but been to paris. Its very easy to get around paris if you figure out how their subway systems works. DO NOT RENT A CAR! City is great. you can take tour busses that are very reasonable that will take around the city. You can start from the louvre... City is great but if you can get outside of the city, you can appreciate the country much more. Chatres is must see; Versailles is a lot of fun..Champs-Elysýes in night i a sight to see g'luk

Preeti, where did you get your ticket from, and how much did it cost you during the month of August (if you don't mind sharing it here).

France!! Well u better know some French. I already had some problem there and cancelled my 2 week vacation to 2 days and went to Germany instead hehe!! Good luck But it was like two years ago until something changed by then!! The only thing that I like till now is Zidane ;) England is awesome. That is a good decision and if you plan to extend your vacation, go to Germany, go clubbing or something like that. German clubs are world renowned!! Promise you, you will have a blast!! Also if interested, September 18-October 3: Munich Oktoberfest Location: Theresienwiese, Munich, Germany

Food in England sucks big time. So get prepared to eat some lame food. Country as a whole is alright. France is awesome. A whole different experience. Food is great, but expensive.But some good wines are dirt cheap. Paris mainly at night is breathtaking. I have been there on different occasions, and everytime I am there, I find the city even more interesting, and there's always something new to visit in the city. And yeah, if you have time and money, definitely go to the south of France. Nice beaches and mountains, and a lot of history. Since you said you'll be there this summer, be preapred to see a hugh crowd of tourists wherever you go in France since it is the most visited country in the world (even before USA). The country is simply the best. It has awesome beauty, great food, great culture, rich history and art, and the people are not any different than others. Enjoy your trip.

I would rather visit Barcelona, and other places in Spain, and Lisbon, Portugal, and also some areas of Greece. It isn't far from France. Paris is too much comercalized. So as London. Try something different and relaxed atmosphere. Barcelona is awesome, and some Greek Island also takes your breath away. Going to Paris and London is like having Accord and Camries. Its not bad owning those cars but I am just saying that its common. Try something different.
