Best/cheapest way to travel on London underground

[Sue_Balou]

Next week I will be travelling from Woking to Waterloo on South West Trains and then tube to Temple (only 2 stops), and return the same day.

I don't have an Oyster Card and would not really make use of one. What's the best/cheapest ticket for this journey? I've looked at National Rail Enquiries and TFL websites but can't work out the best option - separate rail and tube tickets, rail and travelcard combined, rail and Oyster Card?

Will be getting train from Woking at about 10:30am.

Thanks

buy a travelcard from Woking, works out cheaper than seperate tickets unless you know someone with an oystercard that you could borrow.

Temple is almost opposite Waterloo station on the opposite bank of the Thames - walk over waterloo bridge, then drop down on to Victoria Embankment via the steps at the end of the bridge, then head downstream (left as you face back across the Thames). Walking time under 15mn.

Thanks for the advice. Don't know anyone with an Oyster Card so will get a Travelcard but if it turns out to be a sunny summer's day (you never know) then we'll walk.

I might be wrong but I think there might be a time restriction with Oyster cards now anyway (during the afternoon). A Travelcard`s the way to go.

You are wrong. There is no time restriction with Oyster cards.

What you may be thinking of is a higher fare using Oyster in peak hours - still cheaper than buying cash fares though

An off peak day travelcard at £20.30 is what you want if you don't want to get an Oyster card

I will suggest you to stay somewhere in Apartment or Hotels in London and hire a rental car for traveling all over London. You can easily find a rental car in London by paying few bucks.
