Of course, the best way to explore the sights here is on foot but this is not always possible.<\/p>\n<p>London\u2019s extensive public transportation system can help you reach wherever you want in the city. The city offers you multiple options to choose from including tube, railway services, buses, cable cars, trams, and taxi cabs.<\/p>\n<p>The Tube, overground rail, and bus services are the most convenient and cheapest way to get around London. You can get an Oyster card to ride on any of these transportation options and reach most parts of the city.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of speed, the underground tube is the best choice. It is quick, flexible and can be availed at a discount using the Oyster card.<\/p>\n<p>For tourists, the red double-decker buses and the riverboat (Thames Clipper) are good choices too. The places where you cannot take underground tubes or overground rail can be reached with the help of the Docklands Light Railway services.<\/p>\n<p>A taxi cab is a quick way to reach your destination but extremely pricey. London is a huge city with attractions spread throughout and not concentrated in a single area. So make sure  to know about the transportation options available in the city and how much it would cost you.While you can explore the city by car, the traffic in London is a nightmare. This is why it is best to travel around the city using the metro or the buses.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/london-public-transportation\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/microbrands-content-image\/image\/a24e8954167ea2ead572a323a2c33a02-London%20Tube.jpeg?fm=pjpg&amp;auto=compress&amp;w=125&amp;h=125&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" data-sizes=\"auto\" alt=\"London Public Transport\" sizes=\"125px\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/microbrands-content-image\/image\/a24e8954167ea2ead572a323a2c33a02-London%20Tube.jpeg?fm=pjpg&amp;auto=compress&amp;w=125&amp;h=125&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"3771067028\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\">Getting Around London <\/p>\n<h2>Public Transportation in London 101<\/h2>\n<p>Want to dive deeper into London&#8217;s public modes of transportation?

It has many expensive 4 star and 5 star hotels.<\/li>\n<li><b>Bloomsbury<\/b> is just a walking distance from West End, and has relatively cheaper hotels.<\/li>\n<li><b>Victoria<\/b>, the transport hub of London, forms a good base for sightseeing and has a range of hotels that are not very cheap, but not too expensive either.<\/li>\n<li> <b>Kensington<\/b> is well-connected, and has quite a few attractions, along with places to stay for all budgets.<\/li>\n<li><b>King&#8217;s Cross, St Pancras, and Euston<\/b> are the areas ideal for a budget accommodation or a B&amp;B.<\/li>\n<li><b>Paddington and Bayswater<\/b> are also pleasant areas with quite a few budget properties.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span>West End<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p> <b>Top 5 Headout Picks<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firmdalehotels.com\/hotels\/london\/haymarket-hotel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Haymarket Hotel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepiccadillywestend.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Piccadilly London West End<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nadlerhotels.com\/the-nadler-soho.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Nadler Soho<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.henriettahotel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Henrietta Hotel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierinn.com\/gb\/en\/hotels\/england\/greater-london\/london\/hub-london-covent-garden.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hub by Premier Inn<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span>Bloomsbury<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p> <b>Top 5 Headout Picks<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thistle.com\/en\/hotels\/london\/bloomsbury-park.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thistle Bloomsbury Park<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sacoapartments.com\/serviced-apartments\/uk\/london\/saco-holborn-lamb-s-conduit-st\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SACO Holborn &#8211; Lamb&#8217;s Conduit St<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/gb\/smart-russell-square.en-gb.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Smart Russell Square Hostel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grangehotels.com\/hotels-london\/the-lancaster\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Grange Lancaster Hotel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/harrisonbar.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Harrison Gastro Pub and Hotel<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span>Kensington<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p> <b>Top 5 Headout Picks<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.milestonehotel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Milestone Hotel and Residences<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.doylecollection.com\/hotels\/the-kensington-hotel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Kensington<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadria.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Adria Boutique Hotel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firmdalehotels.com\/hotels\/london\/number-sixteen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Number Sixteen<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Acacia Hostel<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span>Paddington<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p> <b>Top 5 Headout Picks<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pointahotels.com\/our-hotels\/paddington\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Point A Hotel, London Paddington<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www3.hilton.com\/en\/hotels\/united-kingdom\/hilton-london-paddington-LONPDHI\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hilton London Paddington<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tudorcourtpaddington.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tudor Court Hotel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thepilgrm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Pilgrm<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercurehydepark.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mercure London Hyde Park Hotel<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Tips &amp; Hacks For Making The Best of London In 5 Days<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The English, proud of their rich history and global status, are a courteous and reserved lot. They appreciate politeness and restraint. It is advisable to not be overly familiar with people you do not know. Though, despite their steely appearance, the British are friendly and helpful towards visitors.<\/li>\n<li>They are not too demonstrative of their affection towards formal people in public so backslapping or touching is not appreciated. They like their personal space and expect you to maintain some physical distance at all public places.<\/li>\n<li>At a restaurant, you summon a waiter by raising your hand not by waving or shouting. You are also supposed to watch your volume at public places as the British consciously speak softly.<\/li>\n<li>They follow the Continental table manners holding the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right while eating.<\/li>\n<li>Use of last name with appropriate title is the way to address people in the UK.<\/li>\n<li>A handshake is the common way to greet everyone including children. Women are expected to extend their hand first.<\/li>\n<li>Always hold the door for the person behind you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/london-travel-tips\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/blog-banner\/image\/84baa57707d7cd371bfd04856f9e8606-lucas-davies-iP8ElEhqHeY-unsplash.jpg?fm=pjpg&amp;auto=compress&amp;w=125&amp;h=125&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" data-sizes=\"auto\" alt=\"London travel tips &amp;
