Practical Information<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<h3>How &amp; Where to Buy the London Pass<\/h3>\n<p>The London Pass can be bought upto 12 months in advance. It must be collected on the same date selection during the time of purchase and gets activated on the first usage. You can buy the London Pass online and have it sent to your smartphone which allows you to carry the London Pass on your mobile. The mobile pass will have a unique QR code which will allow entry into the attractions included. Learn more about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.londonpass.com\/shipping-collection-for-london-pass\/london-pass-mobile-ticket.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mobile London Pass <\/a> here. Alternatively, you can have the London Pass shipped to your address ( will incur shipping charges) or you can bring a print your e-voucher and have it exchanged for a physical London Pass at the London Pass Redemption Desk on Trafalgar Square.<\/p>\n<h3>Know Before You Buy the London Pass<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The London Pass grants entry to each attraction only once.<\/li>\n<li>You will recieve a free colour,informative and comprehensive 160-page guidebook guidebook along with your London Pass that can help you plan your sightseeing better. This guide is available in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Japanese.<\/li>\n<li>With your London Pass, you can choose any one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/london-hop-on-hop-off-bus-tours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hop-On-Hop-Off bus tour operator<\/a> &#8211; either Big Bus London or Golden Tours and use the HOHO service for 1 calendar day. Once the operator is chosen, you cannot switch between operators.<\/li>\n<li>If you visit a minimum of 3 attractions in London per day using the London Pass, you are saving atleast \u00a320 per day on entry prices.<\/li>\n<li>If your itinerary involves a good amount of shuttling around London, you can opt to purchase your London Pass with Oyster Travelcard. The Oyster Travel Card is a public transport pass, which allows free travel on all London underground and bus services. Buying them as a combo works out more economical than purchasing them indiviually.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Is the London Pass Worth It?<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p>This is the million dollar question one always asks before purchasing city passes. To be honest, we can&#8217;t say for sure if the London Pass will be worth your money or not, but we can definitely show you a cost analysis that will help you decide.<\/p>\n<p>If you were to visit the Tower of London (at \u00a324.80), the View from the Shard (at \u00a329.95), Westminster Abbey (at \u00a322) and use a 1 day Hop-On-Hop-Off bus tour (\u00a334) it would normally ideally cost you \u00a3110.75. If you had a London Pass however, you purchase a 1 day pass for \u00a369 and do all of this and much more by spending way less!<\/p>\n<p>However, whether the London Pass works worthy or not depends entirely on your itinerary and the number of days you are staying in London. The London Pass does consist of some offbeat attractions that are outside the normal tourist radar, however coupling these with the major attractions will only prove the pass worthy for your money. Visiting a minimum of 3 top attractions and around 2 other attractions along with availing the shopping discounts and free attractions will prove the London Pass bang for your buck!<\/p>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Who should buy the London Pass &amp; Who should Skip it?<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>The London Pass works out well for : <\/b><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> Those traveling to London for the first time and looking to visit all the major attractions like the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Shard and St. Paul\u2019s Cathedral. <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> Those who are interested in visiting the umpteen Museums &amp; Galleries in London.

Look at the differences between each to figure out which one suits you better.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Both the Standard Oyster Card and Visitor Oyster Card are plastic cards , except that the Visitor Oyster Card has artistic designs on it compared to the plain blue facade of the Standard Oyster Card.<\/li>\n<li>The fares, functionality, topping and caps for a standard Oyster Card and a Visitor Oyster Card is the same. The main difference is the fee for obtaining the card, ability to use travelcards with the card, offers attached to the cards, and point of purchase.<\/li>\n<li>While purchasing Visitor Oyster Cards, you are required to pay an activate fee of \u00a33 which is non refundable. However, while purchasing a Oyster Card, the \u00a35 paid during purchase is refunded while cancelling or surrendering the card. The only extra bonus to having a Visitor card is that while cancelling the card, you can request the TFL to cut you a cheque for any amount leftover on your card.<\/li>\n<li>While the  Standard Oyster Card allows visitors to add travelcards , bus and tram passes onto their card, the Visitor Oyster card does not allow that facility.<\/li>\n<li>The 7 day Travel Card can be loaded only on the standard Oyster Card. If you&#8217;re staying in London for over 5 days, this 7 day Travel Card bears great savings. Hence, if you&#8217;re trip in London exceeded 5 days buy the standard Oyster Card and not the Visitor Oyster Card.<\/li>\n<li>While cancelling both the cards you will recieve the amount left in the cards in either cash or coins ( cheque facility only for Visitor Card). Note, this facility cannot be availed at the Gatwick Airport. Make sure to return the standard Oyster Card for a refund of \u00a35.<\/li>\n<li>You can regsiter a standard Oyster Card but cannot register the Visitor Oyster Card. The benefits of registering is that you can disable the use of the Oyster Card if you lose it and you can request a refund of cash left on the card.<\/li>\n<li>The Visitor Oyster card is mainly targeted to travelers as the card offers a number of discounts throughout the city on food, shopping, attractions, theatre tickets, and other London experiences.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">How to use the Oyster Card?<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p>There are 2 ways of using the Oyster Cards.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Pay As You Go (PAYG)<\/b> &#8211; This method allows you to top the electronic card from time to time and each journey fare is deducted from the cash on the Oyster card. Note, the fare deducted is far cheaper than if you purchased tickets individually<\/li>\n<li><b>Unlimited Travel with Flat Fee<\/b> &#8211; Standard Oyster cards (not Visitor Oyster cards) allows you to load a 7 day Travelcard electronically on to the Oyster and you can use both Oyster Pay As You Go and a 7 day Travelcard together. Hence you can use the Oyster Card for unlimited travel for the period you have paid for. So if you are in London for 10 days, use the Oyster Card for 3 days and the 7 day Travelcard for the other 7.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Know Before You Buy London Oyster Cards<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Only a single person can travel with an Oyster card at any time. If 2 people are travelling together 2 Oyster cards are required to pass through. However, your oyster card can be used by another person in your absence.<\/li>\n<li>The Oyster card does not hold your photo or name. However, you can register the Oyster card if you wish.<\/li>\n<li>If you were to pay indiviually for each journey, the fares would be higher than the rates deducted from your Oyster &#8216;Pay As You Go&#8217; card.<\/li>\n<li>Oyster cards have a capping system, which helps save more money. There is a maximum amount that you can be charged on a daily basis (4.30 AM to 4.29 AM) for traveling in different zones. After you exceed that amount in one day, your travel is free for the rest of the day.<\/li>\n<li>Children under the age of 11, can travel for free on London\u2019s public transport if accompanied by an adult holding a valid Oyster card.<\/li>\n<li>While buying the London Pass, you can add a Visitor Oyster Card which comes preloaded with credit depending on the number of days selected for the London Pass. Buying ths combo works out cheaper than buying each indiviually.<\/li>\n<li>Note, the Oyster card does not cover Heathrow Express, Heathrow Connect services, East Midlands Trains, Grand Central, Hull Trains, Virgin Trains, or Virgin Trains East Coast services. Basically, or rail or bus services where the journey starts or finishes outside of London, the Oyster Card cannot be used.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Is the London Oyster Card Worth It?<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Using Oyster Cards are extremely convinient and bears significant savings as well. Moreover, the Oyster Card is accepted in almost all forms of public transport in London, adding to its convinience factor. Standing in ticket queues for each travel, fiddling with loose change, digging through other umpteen ticket stubs is all a hassle, especially if you&#8217;re traveling in a big group.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you&#8217;re traveling from  Zone 1 to Zone 2 on the Undergroung Tube during off-peak hours, it will cost you \u00a32.40 on an Oyster card versus \u00a34.90 if you buy a single ticket. However, if you&#8217;re not one to travel much around London, it does make sense to buy indiviual tickets. Whether you should purchase the Standard Oyster Card, the Visitor Oyster Card or top the Oyster Card with the Travel Card is entirely based on the amount you intend to travel, but if you&#8217;re going around sightseeing in London, the Oyster Card is a definite boon!<\/p>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Tips for using the London Oyster Card<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The Oyster card can be used to shuttle back and forth the Gatwick Airport.<\/li>\n<li>There are potential discounts on Oyster Card prices for students, seniors, children, disabled travelers, and veterans. Make sure to carry a special photocard to receive free or discounted travel prices.<\/li>\n<li>The busiest times to travel are 08:30 AM- 09:00 AM and 17:30 PM &#8211; 18:30 PM from Monday to Friday. Try traveling outside these times for a quicker and more comfortable journey, especially if you&#8217;re carrying heavy luggage\/a rucksack, or travelling in a group.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"londoncitypass5\">London iVenture Card<\/h2>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">London iVenture Card in a Nutshell<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p>The London iVenture Card is an easy to use smart card that combines over 20 attractions, tours, transport and experiences into one pre-paid pass.

Practical Information<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<h3>How &amp; Where to Buy the London iVenture Card<\/h3>\n<p>The London iVenture can be bought upto 6 months in advance. It must be collected on the same date selection during the time of purchase and gets activated on the first usage. You can only buy the London iVenture Card online. There is no provision of buying the London iVenture Card on ground. However, you are required to exchange your iVenture e-voucher at the iVenture Collection Office in Westminster Pier, Victoria Embankment London ( Open daily from 10 AM &#8211; 5 PM). Along with the iVenture Unlimited Attractions card you will recieve a color handy guide containing helpful maps and information on participating attractions and restaurants.<\/p>\n<h3>Know Before You Buy the London iVenture Card<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The London iVenture Card grants entry to each attraction only once.<\/li>\n<li>With your London iVenture Card, you will recieve an Oyster Card which can be used on any bus, tube, tram, DLR or London overground service. This Oyster Card comes topped with \u00a310 credit. You can add further credit as and when you need it.<\/li>\n<li>The Pub Passport that comes along with the London iVenture Card must be collected at the Westminster Pier redemption centre while exchanging your e-voucher for a physical card. This passport provides you a fantastic selection of tasty British dishes conveniently located at venues throughout the city in close proximity to London\u2019s most popular attractions.<\/li>\n<li>A child London iVenture Card is valid for kids aged 4 &#8211; 15 years.<\/li>\n<li>If you have purchased a Card for 7 attractions and were not able to make it to them all, you will not recieve a refund. So, make sure you plan your trip out and accordingly buy the card.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Is the London iVenture Card Worth It?<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>The Good<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The London iVenture Card is a great fetch for tourists who are looking to craft their own itinerary and cash in on the savings the card provides. You can pick and choose what they want and unless it is a restaurant or cruise that requires prior reservation, you can decide on the fly!<\/li>\n<li>The convinience of having deals on attractions, transport and restaurants all squeezed into one is great too because now you just 1 card with you.<\/li>\n<li> The 30 day validity is great too since long term visitors can tour London on a sedate pace.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>The Not So Good<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The fact that you can visit only a maximum of 10 amongst the 31 is sort of restrictive. If you wish to do more, you have to pay over and above the amount spent on the card which may run up your costs.<\/li>\n<li>Most often than not, the London iVenture Card is inclusive of the general admission only and other experiences within the attraction is not accounted for. This is an extra cost.<\/li>\n<li>The curation of attractions does not include museums and other historical sites. Though most museums in London are free, adding a few artists\u2019 or writers\u2019 homes would make the card more comprehensive.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In conclusion, the London iVenture Card is worthy if you choose to visit the more expensive attractions. However, make sure you&#8217;re interested in doing these before purchasing the pass. If the attraction list includes what you intend to cover, then it is definitely worth the money.<\/p>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Who should buy the London iVenture Card &amp; Who should Skip it?<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>The London iVenture Card works out well for : <\/b><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> Those who are staying in London for a long time and can exploit the 30 day validity and leverage the extra discounts of choosing 10 attractions rather than 3.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> Slow travelers who like exploring a city slowly, at a leisurely pace.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> If your preferred means of transport is the Hop-on Hop-off Tour, then the 5 day Unlimited HOHO deal is a great fetch.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> If your itinerary allows for a day trip from London, exploiting the Andersons Tour in the London iVenture Travel Card is good value for money.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> If you\u2019re looking for a deal on National Express Airport Transfer the iVenture Card is a great choice.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\u2714\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/2.4\/svg\/2714.svg\"> If you&#8217;re interested in exploring authentic British cuisine on a budget, the iVenture has some pretty good deals.<\/p>\n<p><b>The London iVenture Card does not work well for : <\/b>\u2715 If you\u2019re looking to experience a multitude of activities in a short period, then this pass is not meant for you as it does not include museums, castles and galleries around London, which constitute a good part of London\u2019s attractions.\u2715 If less than 3 attractions in the roster is on your priority list.<\/p>\n<h3><b><span class=\"london-text\">Tips for using the London iVenture Card <\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Since the Oyster Card comes pre loaded with just \u00a310 , we&#8217;d suggest picking it up seperately. Do not opt for it amongst your kitty of attractions as \u00a310 won&#8217;t get you too far.<\/li>\n<li>One of the best value items in the London iVenture Card is the Anderson Tours that takes you to Windsor Castle, Stonehenge and Bath. This will prove worthy of the money spent as it counts as just 1 attraction and is almost counts as a Day trip from London.<\/li>\n<li>Since the iVenture Card is a relatively new addition to the London Passes spectre, there are many frequent additions.

Perpetually ensconced with a book in her hand and a mug of coffee in the other, she has been to over 15 countries in her 23 years of existence and is currently saving miles and money for her solo trip to Iceland. Always hustling towards the least trodden path, she has encountered some wonderful people during her escapades and if you ever meet her, she won't stop gushing about them.","url":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/author\/lakshmi-menon\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6870"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/30"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6870"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":135561,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6870\/revisions\/135561"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/135562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
