London Pass
Free entry to over 60 London sights, discounts on others and on things like boat cruises, walking and bike tours, West End muscials, and shopping. One version covers just the sights and activities, the other throws in free public transportation (tube, light rail, and buses) covering zones 1 through 6—that's 55 square miles, folks, all the way out to Heathrow Airport.

The prices below—gathered in 2005—are for adults, include the 17.5% tax then rounded, and apply if you opt to pick up the card in person at London's main tourst office at 1 Regent St. Kids aged 5 to 15 pay about £7-£11 less per day.

If you pre-order the card—the only way to get it to cover that ride into town from Heathrow—and want it delivered, shipping is £2.95 within the U.K. (takes 3 days), £5.95 worldwide (allow 10 days; FedEx it in 3 days to the US for £27).
