Don't go just because it's famous!
Don't go to anything just because it's famous! Too many tourists (especially people who've seen too many Disney movies) waste a lot of time and money racking up a slew of over-rated places, justifying their visits by saying 'well, it's famous.' If you've only got a week, don't bother with disappointing Stonehenge, the overpriced Tower of London and Madame Tussauds, or standing in the rain for the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace. Instead find less-visited alternatives that are just as important. Most importantly, visit what you find personally interesting, not just because it's famous.
