Hello all,

I am going to be in London the first part of June. I will be
staying in a hotel close to Paddington Station. I will need to get
to Gatwick. Also we will be sight seeing, can I get a pass to ride
the tube and will the tube pass take us to Gatwick? About how much
will this cost?

Gatwick is about 30 miles south of London, and well outside the validity
of tube passes, which are known as Travelcards. Trains to Gatwick run
from Victoria, either the dedicated non-stop Gatwick Express (
http://www.gatwickexpress.co.uk/ ) or slightly slower and cheaper trains
on the Southern network. Paddington to Victoria is a simple tube
journey (Circle Line).

You can get a Travelcard for 1, 3 or 7 days, and for various zones,
though for most tourists Zones 1 & 2 will be adequate.

HTH. Enjoy your visit!
