To find out the best way to travel between stations in London, take a look at Transport for London where you can plan your route across London by Tube, bus, taxi, or on foot if you’d like a healthier option.

If your journey requires you to travel through London to continue to your destination, then your ticket should include the cost of the transfer. If London is your destination, you can still add any Tube ticket to your journey or use contactless for quick and easy travel around London. Find out more here.
