London's transport network is among the most complex and expensive in the world. The London Transport (LT)
travel information office
, at Piccadilly Circus tube station (daily 9am-6pm), will provide free transport maps; there are other desks at Euston Station, Heathrow (terminals 1, 2 and 3), King's Cross, Liverpool Street, Paddington and Victoria stations. There's also a 24-hour phone line for transport information (tel 020/7222 1234), and a Web site giving real-time travel news (
www.londontransport.co.uk).
If you can, avoid travelling during the
rush hour
(Mon-Fri 8-9.30am & 5-7pm) when tubes become unbearably crowded, and some buses become full to overflowing. Other useful information
