We haven’t even talked about buses. This card covers all London buses within Zones 1 and 2. Hop on, hop off, get lost, find your way back. It’s like having a personal chauffeur who doesn’t judge your playlist.
And the Tube? Unlimited. During the week, you can pop from Bank to Paddington just for a better sandwich shop. Why not? You’ve already paid for the trip.
How it stacks up
Compare it to the Oyster Pay-As-You-Go model. If you cap your daily spending at £8.50 (the daily cap for Zones 1-2), five days equals £42.50. That’s almost the same as the weekly Travelcard. But the Travelcard includes weekends. So you’re basically getting two extra days of unlimited travel for pocket change.

Still not convinced? Think of it like a Netflix subscription. You pay once, then binge. Except here, you’re bingeing on London itself—its cafes, its parks, its hidden alleys. You’re basically a premium subscriber to the city.
