Streetwise London Underground Map - The Tube - Laminated London Metro Map - Folding pocket size subway map for travel

Excellent, accurate, thorough, and easy to read. What more could you ask for? Love that it's laminated so you can pull it out in the rain. It's small so you can easily pocket it, and surreptitiously pull it out, therefore not giving away that you are a tourist. I also recommend the Streetwise London Map - Laminated City Center Street Map of London, England for a comprehensive guide to walking (which I strongly preferred). Also laminated, equally awesome. Warning: unlike Harry Potter's marauder map of Hogwarts, this has no magical powers and will not predict the tube breaking down, stopping unexpectedly, etc.

The most important thing you'll buy for your trip to London. Even though the tube system is online and the Underground has a wonderful website and even an app, this was very handy to have when my phone couldn't get a good signal or if I was away from the actual subway. It is small enough to carry in a purse or pocket and is study. If there is a change in the service or you end up in a different part of the city after a tour or sight seeing, this map is very handy to get you back on track. I used it more than the street map. I was in London for 5 days and used this and a pay as you go Oyster card to see quite a bit of Central London.

It should be obvious that the London Underground map includes only major streets and if that's okay for you, then it's a good map. Realize too that it is a bit bulky and it's a little awkward to carry around with you and use on the run. The free advertising detailed paper maps (available at any hotel's front desk or rack) worked much better as they could be highlighted, notes added, and folded up multiple ways and put in about any pocket (back pocket for jeans and coats). Still it was very useful for planning the next day's activities and routes to get there. After that we relied on the free paper maps totally.

This tiny friend folds up in your pocket and has all the details you need. Londerners were also very friendly helping with transfer advice. In addition to this, check the tube's website for closures - there were tons during our stay. For example, The Piccadilly line usually stopped at my hotels stop, but while I as there, it was under construction, so I needed to make 1 change from the airport to get there. Londerners were quick with advice on which platforms offered a direct cross platform transfer with our bug bags, versus those that would require stairs.

We were able to carry this pocket size and laminated map while making our way around London. Fits great in a pocket. It enabled us to review tube routes before getting to a station. I felt comfortable that we would get on the right track and train, which we did every time.

Not worth it. Many other London maps, including the main Streetwise laminated map, come with an underground map, and free tube maps are everywhere in the underground system. And they are all, including this one, small and difficult to read. It was a waste of a few bucks, which is not to say it wasn't of high quality and perhaps useful in some circumstances, especially rain.

used this while i was living in london for a few months and it was awesome! fits easily into purse, lamented so stays in excellent condition, easy to find stops with grid, must have for anyone new to london

I waited to write a review on this item until we've actually used it. We got back from London on Dec 6. We used this map several times everyday and still in one piece and still good for another trip.

very comfortable pocket map

Podría ser útil para su visita a Londres, ya que irá en una cartera, por ejemplo. Mejor sólo para hacer una impresión u obtener un mapa gratuito en la taquilla. Cerca de 3 euros por una pequeña laminado no es realmente una buena compra.

In jedem Reiseführer ist das so drin, brauche ich nicht, habe mir etwas mehr Informationen vorgestellt, auch ist nicht das ganze Netz drauf,m sondern der "übliche" Ausschnitt. Bin schwer enntäuscht.

This is ideal for quick and inconspicuous reference. The printing is small so heads up, but you won't have to fuss with folding a large map and it's waterproof.

really good product
