    The map used is soo old. The East London Line closed as part of the underground in 2007. You also mention Waterloo is served by three lines, it is actually 4 lines, Bakerloo, Northern, Jubilee and Waterloo & City.

    Elizabeth Line - is not an underground line but is part of the Network - can save huge amounts of time. Plus air conditioning on the Tain and in the stations.

    I think that an older map was used because it's clearer and any visitor won't be using this very video but a map app or paper one.
    An example being the plethora of accessibility icons now. Here 3:44 there's just the one.

    Kinda confusing using a really old map that still mentions the east London line and doesn’t include the Elizabeth line and overground. The zones are incorrect too

      I recently used an app to buy tickets at a great discount because they’re running a promotion. I can share it with you if you’re interested!

      Unless you have a reason to use it, such as a discount (which young travellers can have on a Visitor's Oyster). I use mine due to the Railcard discount. It's also useful for anyone who doesn't have a contactless card to use

    I got completely lost this year in February, I was using city mapper and I remember it saying Northbound or something like that but then it said Southbound (?) and I almost started crying cause I really think the app didn't make it clear which line I needed to find; I now realise it was two different vias and I just couldn't find a sign for the one I needed. My boyfriend had to come to rescue me cause I was so frustrated (I usually understand maps extremely well). I still don't understand it very well, but might try again if I visit in December.

    I know it’s basic but I wish just one how to video would not go so fast and skip over the signage in the station. Explain a sign for a train that may have 2-4 different destinations. Which train do you get on? There are many videos telling people about an app but it helps to know the basics too.

    Very ancient maps and bad examples (since most charing cross trains now go to battersea power station that doesn’t exist on your map). Also the double arrow doesn’t mean “overground national rail”. Overground is a network much like an underground within and around london that a tourist also could use and you didn’t even mention that it’s there (not in your pre 2007 map of course), so this video is only going to confuse people

      In order to answer your question, more information is necessary.
      You'll find it easy to go on to the tube's website:
      TfL gov.uk
      where you can put in which zone your accommodation is in, which one you need to travel to, how many adults and children... all sorts of details if you want... and then it will show you various ticketing options.
