A couple of years ago, I had a boyfriend who lived in Bristol. He was from the midlands and had never lived inLondon (bear with me, I do have a point here). He used to tease me constantly, about being a London snob ingeneral (I don't deny it) and about my obsession with the tube in particular. He thought it incredible that Londoners could spend hours discussing the relative merits and speeds of tube route options from A to B.
Then he moved to London himself. Now, he understands.
There are plenty of ops elsewhere on the relative merits of tubes, buses and taxis. All I am proposing to write here, therefore, is a list of my top tips for travelling around London, as based on 25 years of experience gained the hard way.
#1 Unless you really don't care how long it will take you to get somewhere, don't even consider buses. They take ...
Advantages: Lots to see, lots to do, comprehensive travel deals Disadvantages: Quite expensive, you need to stick with the programme to make it worthwhile.
The allure and free availability of foreign travel these days has tended to cloud the attractions of destinations closer to home. Turning our eyes away from the distant west for once we recently spent a delightful week inLondon on a City break holiday. Even though it was April, the weather was cold and windy but dry and we filled our time with a variety of activities. I had no problem finding accommodation in the heart of the city (we booked an apartment two minutes away from Trafalgar Square; two minutes walk from Embankment Station with a view of the London Eye from the front room!). We also braved the vagaries of rail travel and found quite exceptional value travelling Weekend First from the North East.
Despite planning, reading guide books and asking friends and travel agents it is often a problem navigating the transport system ...
Advantages: A wide range of transport available for getting around in LONDON!, Travel card cheapest way to travel... Disadvantages: Can get busy, tacky buses/trains, can get hot....
I love writing about trains and all that. For a change I thought I would probably write about all sorts of transport available right here in the city of London. London has the largest transport system in the United Kingdom. There are so many ways of getting to London and loads of ways getting around inLondon. I’ve previously written about getting around via the tube but today I’ll write about the other forms of transport as well to give everyone a better idea of travelling inLondon.
OK, as you may have heard there are a lot of ways travelling around inLondon from Trams to Trains. Yes, many ways. I personally love travelling via trains or the tube as it is faster and better but they do have their disadvantages.
