Hye guys? I’ve been research myself about transportation in UK and still don’t know which one is convenience for student like me to choose. I mean something like should I buy direct from the counter or should I buy Oyster card or travel card?. Can anyone help me?
Transportation in UK
Hi @enteraleyelash , my friend said so… She said there will be double price if we buy ticket through counter ticket service. Do you think is there any cheapest than oyster card?
@omelettebullocks they say that you must have an 18+ Student oyster photocard to get 30% discount off all fares. The price depends on the zone you are travelling in since London has 9 zones, so hard to say exact fee. But overall, transportation in London is damn expensive so I’m thinking to buy/rent a bike during summer days
Hm, depends where you live. I know that my friend used bike in London - cheep and good for health
@Moonlight But isn’t it troublesome and inconvenient to go around on a bike especially with the rainy and wet weather in UK?
Anyone else know how’s the bus system in UK tho?
@nippynosy haha, you can just use a raincoat than… He said the channels system is really nice and it’s very pleasant way to go work or studies every day
We call the train here the tube. Or else, we will laugh at you. Just kidding!
Here is the map of the London Tube, I suggest you get the Osyter card since it pretty much helps you going around, makes it easier for everyone.
I suppose with the wet and rainy weather there, it’ll be good to get some good boots/ shoes as we’ll be walking a lot in wet conditions. Thanks for sharing the very visual and insightful info @joe_smith
