For visits to any new city, it is always hard marrying the transport maps with the sights you want to see.
Below is a tourist tube map for London, provided by Who’s Jack. Some stations are marked by their real name, others are indicated bye major nearby tourist site instead. So to use it you have to count stops from the last one with a real name. Still worth carrying on you though, as it helps plan the order in which to visit the major sights with least time spent trudging the underground corridors making unnecessary connections.

We all live in London, or maybe some of us have just arrived but how many of us have done all the touristy things there are to do in the capital?
Probably not many. Having lived in London for 10 years now all I have managed is a couple of museums and the aquarium.
This is where this handy tube map comes in. Each of the stations is replaced with a tourist attraction nearest to that station.
So forget the pop ups and special events and new restaurant menus for a while and do the tourist thing. Go to all those places you really should have visited a long time ago. Get there early though – the queues can be mental.

I love this idea for a tourist map of London!

Nice idea, isn’t it? But I’ve heard criticisms that it can be confusing for non-English speakers who may think that Pollock’s Toy Museum, Madam Tussauds and Harrods were genuine names for stations.
