Re: London visit advice
The science museum is separate and cool, but nothing special fi you have seen similar like the Smithsonians. I definitely recommend the British Museum and the National Gallery. Saying you are a history buff, I found the Churchill war rooms and museum really interesting and it is much less traveled then the others. I liked Westminster abbey, but I went for a 5 PM service which does not have the crowds.
Tourists are going to be present at any of the major musuems, castles, or palaces. I enjoyed just walking through London. I was taking a class at LSE and lived in Marylbone. I would definitely recommend going to the Covent Garden and Theatre District and just exploring as much of it is old and not as much traffic by tourists.
