You'd be surprised how many places you can just walk to. Check your
street map. I had friends who took the tube from their Russel
Square Hotel to the British Library. They had to change twice to go
eight blocks.

The City itself is only about a square mile and most of the major
stuff is in that sq mile.

I don't believe the tube goes to the London Eye. Or at least it was
very convenient to take a bus to the theatre on that side of the
river.
