Navigate the city with ease and confidence.

Have one less thing to have to think about during your trip.

Are you worried about using the transport system on your London trip?

We know that you’re SO excited for your visit, ready to explore an amazing, new city with so much to do. But if you’re like MANY of our followers, there’s one major thing you’re stressed about that you can’t possibly avoid: taking public transport. Tube, bus, train… you probably have questions circling in your brain like:

  • What do I do if there’s a strike?
  • How do I pay for a bus ride?
  • How do we get train tickets for a day trip?
  • Where do I get one of those Oyster things?
  • How do I get around in my wheelchair?
  • What’s a “zone” and how do I know which one I’m in?

We get it. Our public transport system is extensive, and it can be overwhelming and confusing even for us Londoners, never mind someone who has just arrived from another country and has never used it before.

And we’ve seen it in our content too. Our most popular TikToks and YouTube videos are ALWAYS our public transport ones, with tons of additional questions from anxious viewers in the comments, many of whom don’t use public transport in their day-to–day life.

You deserve a stress-free London trip and to feel super comfortable taking public transport as soon as you step off the plane in London.

That's why we’ve created the London Transport Guide.

What our customers say...

Maximized our time in London!!

I purchased a multi day itinerary and absolutely loved it! It made it so easy to get around London for me and my family and ensure that we really maximized our time! We would not have enjoyed London as much without the Love and London team!

Stacey, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Do not hesitate! You MUST have this itinerary

Despite being a seasoned traveler, planning for my upcoming London trip was stressful. I was lost with some many options and resources. Jess´ itinerary saved me hours of looking at information (and getting lost in the middle) and made my planning a breeze. Looking forward to the 6-day one!

Fantastic Transport Guide!

Jess and the Love and London Team have produced a completely thorough and easy to read and understand Transport Guide for London. Anything you needed to know is here. Accompanying the Guide are video tutorials on how to use the Tube and the Bus. As someone who has used the Tube (although not the Bus), I can attest that everything was explained step by step. I learned a few more things, as I always do from Love and London. I can't recommend this guide highly enough. A++++++. Cheers!
