Travel Routes!

[Lovescake]

Maybe you guys can help me too

I will be staying at a hostel since the nearby hotels were a bit expensive when I looked at it on Monday :x Google Maps showed me several ways but I don't know if I can trust this.

It tells me to go from New Kent Road either to Newington (BP) and drive the 21 to Bank Station (F) than the DLR to Shadwell (what is a DLR anyway?); or to walk to Elephant Castle take the Northern to Bank and than the DLR to Shadwell and as third option to go to Newington (BS) take the 65 to Newington (B) and the 100 To Shadwell (K)


I am more than just slightly confused right now ^^

Oh and Maybe you can also tell me what kind of Card I should get, Oyster Card or what is it called someone told me is a good idea.It seems like I will be traveling a LOT.

Oyster card is used for ALL transport in London including trains, so you'll need one of these for definite, i'm going to be putting approximately £5 on mine of which gets me an automatic day pass so i can go anywhere in London without having to worry.

Your route however seems to be better to get the New Kent Road to Newington, then the 21 down to Bank Station, then the DLR (Its a train service in London which goes to all the docked areas in London including Tobacco) to Shadwell of which where tobacco dock is. it stops pretty much outside the dock itself where the event is.

Don't you need a student Oystercard to get the fare that low?

No thats the normal price now.

£5 - Normal price, just go on any form of travel, use it 3 times on any bus and it will automatically become a day pass. if its trains its individual unfortunately but £5 should cover you for there and back.

If you were a student it would be even cheaper for a day pass
