WHY IS LOCAL TRANSPORT PREFERRED IN LONDON?
In a large and historic city like London, using public transportation helps you avoid city traffic and time loss, allowing you to see more places in a shorter time. Tours by metro, train, and bus also let you feel London’s dynamic life on the spot. Thanks to these tours, you not only see tourist attractions, but also travel on the lines used by Londoners in daily life, experiencing the city not like a tourist but like a “traveler.” So this is not just a transportation choice, but the most natural way to experience London.
Also;
The hotel where accommodation will be provided is located in the Heathrow area, and public transportation must be used to reach the city center. Accommodation includes breakfast served at the hotel. The breakfast content may vary regionally depending on the hotel’s practice; in European standards, it is generally served in a continental style. A minimum participation of 15 people is required for the extra tours included in the program to take place. It should be noted that if the number of participants falls below this, the relevant tour may not be operated. Local transportation such as metro, train, bus, and ferry may be used on extra tours. In this way, both time loss caused by traffic is prevented, and the opportunity to witness the city’s real life more closely is gained.
