Here’s a final punchy fact. Children under 11 travel free on London buses. Just hop on. No ticket needed. It’s a glorious public policy.
Seniors with a Freedom Pass? Also free. Anyone with a disability and a special Oyster card? You guessed it—free. The bus is the great equalizer.
For everyone else, the daily cap is king. You will never pay more than £5.25 in a single day for unlimited bus and tram rides. That’s less than a single pint of beer in central London.
