General Information
London's public transport network, locally called the London Tube, is divided into nine travel zones. Zone 1 is in Central London and zones 6 to 9 are all on the outskirts of the city. An adult fare on the London underground for a single journey in zone 1 is £6.60. The same Tube fare with Visitor Oyster card, Oyster card or contactless payment card is £2.40. Underground's Piccadilly Line provides the most cost-effective rail route between Heathrow and the capital and you shouldn’t have to wait longer than 10 minutes for a train, even off-peak.
