I went to London this week for a short break with my boyfriend and there was a lot of travelling from the airport to the hotel to the shops and vice versa. One of the main methods of travel we used was the underground tube system in London. If you have never used the Underground, it is a rapid transit system serving a large part of ...

The Tube (or London Underground) is London's subway network, spanning the whole of London, within the M25, and some slightly outside. ~~~STATIONS~~~ The stations of most underground stations are aged and look very grimy and "Oliver Twist" like. Apart from a few stations in Central London, and some that have recently been ... Read the complete review

I lived in London for 3 years while I was studying and the London underground was a life saver over this period. I find the underground easy and relatively cheap to use and gets you to just about anywhere in London. I have driven around London and absolutely hate it, you really have to be pushy and aggressive which I don't like and you spend so ... Read the complete review

London Underground, a lot of people hate it, so much so there is song all about how much people hate The Underground. But in my opinion its faster, probablty more convienient. Okay so sometimes there is the occasional delay due to signal failure or whatever, But if you have to drive through london in rush hour you are not going to ... Read the complete review

Underground in general Description: Usually referred to as the tube I live in Tyne and Wear which means that I use the Metro rather than having to suffer the London Underground. I usually go to London for a weekend of 2 in the summer and every time that I do, I come back thankful that I don't have to get the tube every ... Read the complete review

Ah yes, the good old 'Tube'. The London Underground. The world's biggest underground rail network. The world's oldest one as well...and having used it regularly for the last year, in many places it certainly shows its age. Is that part of its charm? Or were it update properly we could all live a little easier when it comes to the dreaded rush ... Read the complete review

Everyone wears these T-shirts that say they love the Underground. I don't really see how and why they would think that. Have they actually ever been on it? I am not going to complain too much though do not worry yourselves. Basically I get the work into work, and before work I got it in to college and the train is horrible during ...

It comprises of an underground network of London and some areas of greater London, stretching with the odd line to far out places such as Watford in Buckinghamshire.

There are several ways to get around in London one of which is the London Underground. As someone who lives in London the underground has been an essential service for travelling to destinations which cannot be reached on foot or too inconvenient by bus. Unfortunately while it is an essential service it is also extremely over priced ... Read the complete review

Quite an odd thing to review especially when this is more of a topic than a product or service. I visited London about 3wks ago and loved it. We went on the tube to grab some tea for the only evening we spent there. We got onto the DLR (Docklands Light Railway) and purchased tickets, no easy task, then travelled into the actual ...

Well this probably isn't the best way to start the review, but as one of the millions of people who have been inconvenienced by the tube workers general strike over the last two days, I am disappointed with the service we receive in ths country.

Every time I go home I have to cross London. Ive done the journey a fair few times now in 3 years at uni. I go from kings cross, change at oxford street, walk across to the other line and go to waterloo. It only takes me about 20 mins if its not busy and a train arrives just as I get to the platform. I find the underground ... Read the complete review

When you hear people mention the tube, it is normally because they are moaning about a bad experience that they have had, the train was delayed, late or just too busy. Well to be honest i think on the whole the london underground system does a good job, I know i'll probably take some flack for this but let me explain. Firstly, London's ... Read the complete review

During a recent visit to London, I realised that there were three Tube Stations within easy walking distance (5 mins or less) and I mean three stations on different lines; Central, Meltropolitan, Northern, Victoria and Circle Lines. A marvelous range of options were available for travel to and from our hotel and it is such a great way to get about ... Read the complete review
