    Hi there,

    I am looking to go to London for 2 days on the 19th and 20th July and will need to travel around zones 1 and 2 - does anyone know how I can get cheap 2 day travel cards please?

    Thanks

    There are no 2 day cards - only one day ones. £5.60 per day off peak for zones 1-2. The Sunday is off peak all day.

    You can reduce this to a cap of £5.10 a day by getting a PAYG Oyster card. Put say £11 on it, pay a £3 deposit and get the excess back when you leave - or save the card for the next trip.

    You can get paper ones from any one of these (the one on the left does Oyster too for reference):

    or ask the man ;)!

    or get one online:
    http://www.nationalexpresseastcoast.com enter any Nat Rail station in zone 1 or 2 as the start point (e.g. West Brompton) and then destination as 0032. As long as the date is correct the time(s) don't matter.
