Oyster cards
The Oyster card is generally the easiest and cheapest way to pay to travel around
London whether you are using Tube, bus, tram, DLR, London Overground or National
Rail services.
Ticket Types
Oyster can store season tickets (Travelcards) as well as credit for single journeys
(pay as you go), and your card is fully re-usable. When your Travelcard expires or
your pay as you go credit is getting low, you can add another Travelcard or add more
credit at over 3,900 Oyster retailers, at station touchscreen ticket machines and at
Travel Information Centres in London. With pay as you go, you can travel as many
times as you like in a day and the daily price cap means that you will never pay more
than the price of an equivalent One Day Travelcard.
Where to Buy
You can save time by purchasing an Oyster card before you arrive in London at
tfl.gov.uk/visitorshop.
Please allow up to 14 days for delivery.
Using your Oyster
To ensure you pay the correct fare on Tube, DLR, London Overground and National
Rail services you must always touch in on the yellow card reader at the start of your
journey and touch out at the end. On buses and trams you only need to touch in at the
start of your journey.

Oyster on River Services and National Rail, go to

LOCAL TIP
“Research the several different ways
to get into town from London’s airports,
there are lots of different options so
you’re sure to find something to suit,
whether you’re on a budget or just need
to get there swiftly”
Chris, from Wimbledon
visitlondon.com/travel/airport
Richmond
riverside Richmond. It’s popular for
sporting attractions such as the
Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum
and cricket at The Kia Oval. It offers
wonderful opportunities to escape
from the hustle and bustle, from the
village atmosphere of Barnes to historic
stately homes and palaces such as
Ham House and Hampton Court.
London buzzes night and day
with an unforgettable energy, and
each area of the city has its own
distinct atmosphere. Here is a
quick introduction to the points
of our compass:
Central London
London’s heart is made up of
many districts from the iconic
City of Westminster to the City of
London, the main financial area of
the capital. This central area has a
dense concentration of landmarks,
theatres, museums, nightspots and
famous shopping areas like Covent
Garden, Carnaby Street and
Oxford Street.
East London
The East now claims its place
in the limelight and is set to play
a huge part in the London 2012
Olympic Games and Paralympic
Games. The area is home to a
unique arts scene and popular
markets like Spitalfields, while the
nightlife here in Hoxton and
Shoreditch rivals that of the West
End. Further east, Lee Valley
Regional Park is one of London’s
biggest open space.
North London
Over 120 languages are spoken in
this multicultural and vibrant region,
which is steeped in history and
renowned for its culture. Areas of
interest include Hampstead Heath
and Primrose Hill with their huge
green spaces, fabulous views and
village feel, characterful Camden
with its eclectic market and live
music scene, and Green Lanes,
where you can enjoy Turkish,
Greek and Kurdish food.
West London
West London is remarkable for its
leafy squares, fascinating museums
and vibrant street markets. Here you
will find upmarket Kensington and
Chelsea, the peaceful streets and
canals of Maida Vale, Hammersmith,
which is home to some great riverside
pubs, and the vibrant, multicultural
communities of Shepherd’s Bush
and Southall.
South London
The South is appreciated for
its array of open spaces such
as Clapham Common, the World
Heritage Site at Greenwich and
