| To travel by
Underground is a fast and convenient way of finding your way
around London. Your ticket can be bought at Underground stations
and some local newsagents. Or you can purchase a
London Visitors Travelcard
online before you travel. You will need to show your ticket also
when exiting a station, so remember to keep it throughout your
journey. If you fail to show a valid ticket for your journey, you
may become liable to pay a £10 penalty fare. If you are 14 or 15
you will need a
Photocard for all tickets, and everyone will need one for
the 7 Day Travelcard. |
| |
| From Monday to
Saturday, the trains run from about 05.15 until just before 01.00.
On Sundays, trains run from about 06.30 until midnight. If it is
very important that you get with a train in the morning or at
night, it is best to ring the London Travel Information service or
ask at a station to get detailed information. |
| |
| The following
different tickets are available to suit your needs;
One Day Travelcard,
Weekend Travelcard, Family Travelcard,
7 Day Travelcard, One Day
LT Card, Carnets,
Group Day Ticket, Single and
Return tickets. |

Travelcards
If you
plan to make more than a couple of journeys a day, it may be a
good idea to buy a Travelcard, which will allow you to make as
many journeys as you wish within the zones and times the card is
valid for. Travelcards take you around the London Underground,
buses in Greater London, Docklands Light Railway, Tramlink and
most National Rail services within Greater London. |

London
Visitors Travelcard
 Enjoy
total freedom of travel on London public transport including: The
underground, most London buses, Docklands Light Railway and most
of the national railway's trains in the London areas with the
Visitor Travelcard. Visitor Travelcards mean never hunting for
change or queuing for a ticket. The more you travel, the better
the value. So they'd be perfect for sightseeing. Whatever you want
to see or do during your stay in the capital the Visitor
Travelcard will suit your needs. (Available at
