#32 of 81 general tips & advice in London
jenn79 says: There's also a high speed train now available, primarily from Paris (Gare de Lyon) that takes you to other destinations. It's average priced, but the direct, high speed nature of these trains will make it a lot more convenient. I think there is a connection to London, but I'm not sure about Italy - …
The London Pass 1 review
#33 of 81 general tips & advice in London
sdbleve says: I found the London Pass to be a good idea also. Their book lists a lot of things to do, and gives discounts to do them. You can also get multi-day transportation passes.

kazarre says: This is way too expensive. If you are going to travel around the south maybe you should bet a railcard for 20 quid. This will save you a 3rd off all your train fares (you can use it for 3 other people too - so definitely worth it if you are with a group). An example - it cost £6.75(single) which …
