  2. The Tube is a popular mode of transportation in London. However, it can be a little intimidating for tourists. So, if you’re staying in one of the Best Western hotels London or if you are a guest in the amazing hotels near Wembley Stadium, you can use these tips in riding the Tube like a local:

  3. 1.Do not use the Tube when you’re in Central London When you’re roaming around Central London, it’s best not to take the Tube. You can ride the bus instead or you can simply walk around the area. This will save you money and time.

  4. 2.Get an Oyster card If you want to get the cheapest fares possible and save a lot of money, you should get an Oyster card. You can use this card to pay for single trips on the Tube, bus, and tram. You can buy these cards at the TFL Travel Information Centers and Oyster ticket shops. Register your card with TFL and make sure that it has enough money to cover your trips. Go to the TFL website to check your card balance.

  5. 3.Consider other transportation options The Tube is fast and efficient, but it is not open 24 hours a day. The travel times differ from line to line, but most stations open at 5 a.m. and close at 1 a.m. Therefore, you might need to take a bus or a taxi if you plan to roam around the city past 1 a.m. As it is convenient to take public transports in London rather than roaming in your own car, book your stay at budget hotels in North London which offers you free parking space.

  6. 4.Do not travel during rush hour Many locals are grumpy and impatient during rush hours so it’s best to travel after 9 a.m. If you want to stay calm and you’re not in a hurry, wait a little longer and take the Tube after the morning rush hour. You can also avoid rush by booking your stay at hotels in North London.

  7. 5.Do not push yourself into the train During busy hours, allow people to go off the Tube first before going in. This is the polite thing to do and a lot of locals do this.

  8. 6.Be willing to give up your seat Pregnant women usually wear a “baby on board” badge. So, when you see a pregnant woman on board trying to find a seat, be prepared to give up yours.

  9. 7.When taking the station escalator, walk on the left and stand on the right This is the most sacred rule in the London Tube stations. Locals do this and you should, too.

  10. 8.Get the London Underground app This app can help you plan your journeys outside peak hours. This app can also help you get cheap fares. Plus, it can help you check the line’s status and see if there are possible delays and alternative routes.

  11. 9.Take off your backpack when you are inside the train The Tube can get crowded, especially during rush hour. So, if you’re toting a backpack, take it off to save space. Also you can visit London’s top attractions and take rest in the peace surrounding area of hotels in Cricklewood London.

  12. 10.Be quiet The British are well-mannered and they don’t like loud, boisterous, rowdy people. Avoid making loud noises when you’re on the Tube — or talking loudly on your mobile. Source: https://medium.com/@palmhoteluk.com/how-to-ride-the-tube-like-a-local-41247748654b#.684tdmk2j
