I recommend (if you are not renting hotel rooms) to leave your bags in the bus station lockers everyday that way you dont have to carry them around everywhere.... London is a beautiful city, hopefully the skies are clear. I went 2 years ago from the date you are leaving. lets see... take the tour buses, they show you all the hot spots, and then you can spend time in the areas that interest you... The "tube" (subway) is your friend... learn the routes!!! you can travel around fast!
Safety tips... dont flash cash around, always look around at your surroundings, you the the basics. I RECOMMEND wearing those "fanny packs" (you know those things you strap around your waist, and its a pouch) and put your money there and your passport, that way its always on you and you cant get it stolen... very valuable!
Other then that, enjoy! its sooo much fun... If you want anything else specific, let me know... I know a few of my favorites....
PS: if you can travel outside of london, try and hit scotland for a day (edinburg, its beautiful) and try to see stonehenge (outside of london), and Bath (very pretty).... so much to do, so little time..
