What better way to spend the weekend than the challenge of going everywhere and doing everything in London. Now you can, and with the Weekend Travelcard, there's extensive travel on both days.

If you've got the energy, we've got the ticket. A 25% saving on two One Day Travelcards over one weekend means fixed cost travel for a Saturday and Sunday. It's also flexible enough for travel on a Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday.

The Weekend Travelcard is valid on buses, tubes and trains from the start of service on Saturday until last trains on Sunday night (excluding nightbuses) and covers all London Transport travel zones.

With over 20,000 Weekend Travelcards sold each week, many have already discovered its value. It is ideal for anyone who wants to make the most of London over the weekend - without the time consuming hassle of taking the car into the capital, or the expense of car-parking.

The Weekend Travelcard has attracted new customers, with visitors finding it just as practical as Londoners for getting around town conveniently and cheaply. Whether an overseas visitor who has a weekend to spare and wants to tour the sights of London, or a couple who have come up to London to visit an art gallery, see a play, enjoy a restaurant or visiting friends, everyone will find that the Weekend Travelcard is just the ticket.
