Arriving in London

London's comprehensive and efficient public transport system makes it a breeze to traverse the expansive city and its numerous iconic attractions.

Means of Public Transport in London

• The London Underground (Tube): The most efficient and popular way to navigate London is through the Underground, colloquially known as the Tube. As Europe's largest metro system, it boasts 11 lines and over 270 stations, covering more than 400 kilometers of track. The Tube operates until midnight, with certain lines - Central, Jubilee, Northern, Piccadilly, and Victoria - providing 24-hour service on Fridays and Saturdays.
• DLR (Docklands Light Railway): The Docklands Light Railway is an automated light rail system that operates above ground and extends the reach of the Tube, especially in East London. It connects key areas such as Canary Wharf, Greenwich, Stratford, and London City Airport. The DLR operates on the same schedule and fare system as the Underground, making it a seamless extension of the metro network.
• Buses: London's extensive bus network reaches even the farthest corners of the city. While the iconic double-decker red buses are a quintessential London experience, they can be slower due to traffic, making them less ideal for long journeys. However, they offer fantastic views of the city and are a fun way to see London from above ground. The bus network is vast, but navigating the numerous routes can be complex for first-time visitors.
• Tramlink: Primarily serving residents of Croydon and nearby areas, London’s Tramlink offers a reliable transport option, albeit limited to the southern suburbs. With its modern trams, the service may be less relevant to tourists, but it’s a good option to consider if your travels take you to the southern outskirts of London.
• Taxis: London’s famous black cabs are available around the clock and offer a convenient option, particularly if you have heavy luggage or prefer a direct, door-to-door service. Taxis can be hailed on the street, found at designated ranks, or booked via mobile apps. However, they tend to be more expensive, especially during peak times and at nighttime.
