Essential London Tips

01
Get an Oyster Card
Single cash fares cost double. Tap in and out with Oyster or your contactless bank card — the daily cap ensures you never overpay.
02
Most Museums are Free
British Museum, National Gallery, V&A, Natural History Museum, Tate Modern — all free, all world-class. Plan accordingly.
03
Walk the South Bank
The riverside walk from Westminster to Tower Bridge is one of the world's great free experiences. Allow 2–3 hours.
04
Stand Right on Escalators
Stand on the RIGHT of Tube escalators, leave the left for walkers. Breaking this rule earns hostile stares from Londoners.
05
Book Restaurants Ahead
London's best restaurants fill up weeks in advance. Use OpenTable or Resy — especially for Soho and Borough.
06
Best Free Views
Primrose Hill and Parliament Hill on Hampstead Heath give panoramic London views — free, and better than The Shard.
