door of the bus I say quickly because
door of the bus I say quickly because sometimes the bus driver starts taking
sometimes the bus driver starts taking
sometimes the bus driver starts taking off a four-year off the bus if this
off a four-year off the bus if this
off a four-year off the bus if this happens you can just yell at them to
happens you can just yell at them to
happens you can just yell at them to stop
stop
stop um but the best way to prevent this is
um but the best way to prevent this is
um but the best way to prevent this is just to try and get quickly to the door
just to try and get quickly to the door
just to try and get quickly to the door next up we have the tube so this is one
next up we have the tube so this is one
next up we have the tube so this is one of my favorite ways to get around London
of my favorite ways to get around London
of my favorite ways to get around London it's definitely one of the quickest but
it's definitely one of the quickest but
it's definitely one of the quickest but there are a few things to note first is
there are a few things to note first is
there are a few things to note first is that at tube stations you have to tap in
that at tube stations you have to tap in
that at tube stations you have to tap in and out even if there's not a barrier so
and out even if there's not a barrier so
and out even if there's not a barrier so sometimes there'll be a barrier that
sometimes there'll be a barrier that
sometimes there'll be a barrier that obviously you can't walk through without
obviously you can't walk through without
obviously you can't walk through without tapping in but sometimes there's just a
tapping in but sometimes there's just a
tapping in but sometimes there's just a little yellow sensor on either like a
little yellow sensor on either like a
little yellow sensor on either like a little stand or against the wall so just
little stand or against the wall so just
little stand or against the wall so just make sure that you're keeping an eye out
make sure that you're keeping an eye out
make sure that you're keeping an eye out for that the next thing you want to pay
for that the next thing you want to pay
for that the next thing you want to pay attention to is what line you need so
attention to is what line you need so
attention to is what line you need so after you've gone through the barrier
after you've gone through the barrier
after you've gone through the barrier there will be signs indicating which
there will be signs indicating which
there will be signs indicating which direction you need to go to for the
direction you need to go to for the
direction you need to go to for the specific line that you want so for
specific line that you want so for
specific line that you want so for example if you're looking for the
example if you're looking for the
example if you're looking for the Piccadilly line you'll follow that sign
Piccadilly line you'll follow that sign
Piccadilly line you'll follow that sign and City mapper again will tell you what
and City mapper again will tell you what
and City mapper again will tell you what line that you need City mapper will also
line that you need City mapper will also
line that you need City mapper will also tell you which direction that you need
tell you which direction that you need
tell you which direction that you need to be getting so for example the
to be getting so for example the
to be getting so for example the Piccadilly line runs east to west so
Piccadilly line runs east to west so
Piccadilly line runs east to west so City America will tell you if you need
City America will tell you if you need
City America will tell you if you need to be getting the eastbound train or the
to be getting the eastbound train or the
to be getting the eastbound train or the westbound train and there will be signs
westbound train and there will be signs
westbound train and there will be signs indicating which platform is for which
indicating which platform is for which
indicating which platform is for which now the tricky thing is sometimes tubes
now the tricky thing is sometimes tubes
now the tricky thing is sometimes tubes split off they could be going the same
split off they could be going the same
split off they could be going the same direction but have different final
direction but have different final
direction but have different final destinations so again citymapper will
destinations so again citymapper will
destinations so again citymapper will tell you the destination of the bus or
tell you the destination of the bus or
tell you the destination of the bus or the tube that you need to get on but
the tube that you need to get on but
the tube that you need to get on but just you can double check on the signs
just you can double check on the signs
just you can double check on the signs and just see if your stop is along the
and just see if your stop is along the
and just see if your stop is along the way to the final destination of that of
way to the final destination of that of
way to the final destination of that of that tube and I just say this because
that tube and I just say this because
that tube and I just say this because sometimes the same tube at the same
sometimes the same tube at the same
sometimes the same tube at the same platform can be be going to different
platform can be be going to different
platform can be be going to different destinations so I just want you to be be
destinations so I just want you to be be
destinations so I just want you to be be aware of it but it's not really that
aware of it but it's not really that
aware of it but it's not really that complicated if you do happen to get on
complicated if you do happen to get on
complicated if you do happen to get on the wrong tube just know it happens to
the wrong tube just know it happens to
the wrong tube just know it happens to all of us it's not a big deal you just
all of us it's not a big deal you just
all of us it's not a big deal you just get off and recalculate your journey now
get off and recalculate your journey now
get off and recalculate your journey now unlike buses tubes do stop at every stop
unlike buses tubes do stop at every stop
unlike buses tubes do stop at every stop unless indicated otherwise so you don't
unless indicated otherwise so you don't
unless indicated otherwise so you don't need to press any buttons or anything to
need to press any buttons or anything to
need to press any buttons or anything to make sure the tube is going to stop just
make sure the tube is going to stop just
make sure the tube is going to stop just be aware of where you are on the tube
be aware of where you are on the tube
be aware of where you are on the tube map and pay attention to the
map and pay attention to the
map and pay attention to the announcement so that you know when to
announcement so that you know when to
announcement so that you know when to get off and then when you get off of the
get off and then when you get off of the
get off and then when you get off of the tube there are going to be signs that
tube there are going to be signs that
tube there are going to be signs that tell you where to be going so if you are
tell you where to be going so if you are
tell you where to be going so if you are trying to get out of the tube station
trying to get out of the tube station
trying to get out of the tube station you'll follow the way out signs and then
you'll follow the way out signs and then
you'll follow the way out signs and then if you're trying to connect to a
if you're trying to connect to a
if you're trying to connect to a different line you'll follow the signs
different line you'll follow the signs
different line you'll follow the signs to that as well and then don't forget to
