Sure, but you have to invest at least a little in TfL bus consciousness (scope out routes, locate stops, etc.) and be willing to get a little bit lost for fun. For a newcomer with only two days in town I'd happily recommend the Big Bus or one of the other hop-on-hop-off rides, if only because there is no thinking / planning to do.
