Oyster & Travel Cards

5/28/2014 1:40:39 AM

That’s perfectly valid, as most sightseeing is in Zone 1. What you could do is buy a 7 day travel pass immediately at Heathrow (zone 1 and 2) which you put ONTO your Oyster Card.

To explain – the Oyster is just a card. You then either top it up with pre-pay, or you put travel cards on to it.

So step 1 – buy the card.

Step 2 – get some prepay on it to cover your non Zone1-2 trips.

Step 3 – put a 7 day travel card on it.

Step 4 – travel and enjoy London.

And yes, you need individual Oyster cards, but when you return to Heathrow, hand them back in – you get your deposit refunded, plus any outstanding pre-pay balance on the cards.
