London travel advice

Hi Guys,
Looking for advice on an upcoming trip to London, will be down on the 7th of May flying down from Aberdeen to Luton. Getting the train into st pancras, now from here i need to get to piccadilly circus as i have booked the open top bus tour. Whats the cheapest option as i havent been to london since i was 18 now 31, also my parents,wife and 2yo daughter will be with me so thats the scenario.
Ive read a little about these oyster cards but ill only need to get from st pancras to piccadilly circus and back again at night for the train back to luton and not sure whats the best value which is why i thought id ask the MSexperts!:T

    At Luton Airport each adult buys a return train ticket with a one day Travelcard (the 2 yr old travels free). This will cover you for travel to & from the airport as well as within London. There is a ticket office in the airport building itself. The train ticket BTW covers you for the offers on daysoutguide.com

    No need to buy Oystercards or pay the extortionate cash fares.
