We recommend the Oyster Card once you arrive in London, it is refundable 48 hours after the first trip and you don’t have to pay the shipping costs. Here you will find all the information on the Oyster Card. The Visitor Card can be convenient if you travel for more than 5 days and have children with you because the weekly travelcard costs half. For public transport you can use if you also have a contactless credit card.

We tend to advise against the London Pass either because of the cost or because in a certain sense it “forces” you to visit several attractions on the same day. In London there is a lot to see even outside: important monuments, markets, parks, shops, shopping streets, characteristic neighborhoods. The museums are free and so are many buildings: the Parliament on the occasion of the debates, the most important churches when there are evening songs, the area of the Templars with the buildings of justice, our tours….

When we organize airport transfers we calculate about 4 hours before the flight, this is because the airports are almost always an hour away from London and you can run into traffic. We want nobody to miss the plane!

To call an Italian number from England just enter the prefix +39. The English prefix is +44 but you will only need to call English numbers from Italy or from here. Around you find some free wifi lines, often in the bars you find Cloud and O2 so you just have to register once after selecting them and the times after it automatically connects. If you want to always have internet and free calls / sms available for Italy, we advise you to consult the site or an operator of your mobile telephone company (Vodafone, Tim, Wind, Tre ..) before leaving because they have convenient offers for abroad.
