Number one thing to see is The British Museum. Words cannot describe it.
My Tips:
1. If you have to take a cab, you're not trying. The tube system is pretty amazing, at least on par with the NYC Subway System. It's SUPER easy to navigate and is cheap.
2. Buy your train tickets (at least) a day ahead of time. You can pay $10 for a ticket ahead of time, or $75 the day of the trip. I wish someone would have told me that....
3. Trains make excellent day trips easy. Go see York. The Minster is cool and walking the walls was a relaxing and wonderful experience.
4. If she wants to know what depression and sadness looks like, go to Slough. What a sh*thole. Seriously - don't go there.
5. London is all well and good, but she's foolish to travel all that way and not see Scotland. A night or two in Edinburgh will change a person.
