  Travelcard Zone 1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Travelcard Zone 1 is the central zone of Transport for London's zonal system used for calculating co-ordinated inter-modal Travelcard fares within London.
The zone is also used for pricing London Underground and Docklands Light Railway single journeys, but not journeys undertaken entirely by bus or tram, for which a city-wide flat fare applies.
The boundary of Zone 1 roughly corresponds to the route of the Underground's Circle Line and thus stations within the zone cover the West End, the Holborn district, Kensington, Paddington and the City of London.

Depends where you are staying Kay as to what zones you will need, I suggest waiting until you get there and then just getting the ticket at the nearest tube station to you.
The day/weekly travelcards are for the zones you choose, so you have to take into account that if you want to go and see something that's on the zone 2, you may consider buying a travelcard covering those zones.
If you are just going to visit one thing on the zone two and the rest is in zone 1, you can have a zone 1 travelcard, and then get a ticket for that place in zone 2, it will be cheaper.

From then on, your best bet is to get a zone 1&2 travelcard which costs £4.70 off peak for one day (£6 peak), or £15 peak for 3 days.
A zone 1&2 travelcard will take you pretty much anywhere you want to go as a tourist, but it's no good for travel further afield, i.e.
