Question
Dear Michael,

it's me again.. The 33 GBP fare covers both trains and the metro? Do we have to tickets for the 3 yr old and the infant?
Thank you in advance for your answer.

cheers
Bettina

Answer
Hello again Bettina,

On the railways in the UK, children under the age of 5 travel free. This does, however, mean that if there are too few spaces to sit on the train, then they would have to travel by sitting on your lap. But if there is space, then they can take a normal seat.

Expertise mainly in fields of Tourist Attractions, etc. and in Public Transportation in the UK - particularly for those flying into Gatwick Airport, as I live nearby.(Aussi je parle francais...un peu)

Experience

Hopefully having lived here since birth, I will know a fair bit about the area...although I can't claim to know it all!
