Conseils sur la ville
Déplacements
Underground trains are the fastest way around the city
Locals refer to it as “the tube”. Stepney Green is your nearest stop, interchange at Whitechapel for the Overground to Shoreditch, change at Mile End for the Central line to Oxford Circus and the West End, as well as West Ham station for the Jubilee line to Canary Wharf. The possibilities are endless!
Coutumes et culture
“Alright mate”
A common greeting or response when first meeting someone - you can respond however you like!
Manières de faire des économises
Daily trains/bus fares are capped
You can use the TFL transport network as much as you like as the daily fare is capped at around £8 if you use the same card to touch in and out everywhere. Go explore!
Déplacements
Train/tube travel with cards
Use your contactless Debit card (the same one all day) at the gate readers for the best fares. Or buy an Oyster card from the machine and top-up with cash/card. You can get a refund for unused credit from certain stations. Do not use cash to buy individual one-way tickets, crazy expensive.
