		Im placing the tower of london under 'must see' as many people consider it to be something they have to do because of the crown jewels.

		You would be very near London Bridge Rail station (which has a bus station outside) and London Bridge underground (Tube) station, both which will provide useful connections for you.
		But it is in the far east end of central London so, except for the Tower of London/Tower Bridge and the river, it is a very long way from any tourist attractions/sites.
