are so many cars and buses in London that one can not drive along the road
quickly and without many stops. The underground is therefore usually quicker
than taxis or buses. If you don’t know London very well, it is very difficult the bus
you want. You can take a taxi, but is much more expensive than the underground
or a bus. On the underground you can find good maps which tell you the names of
the stations and show you how to get to them, so that it is easy to find your way.
