When is the cheapest time of year to visit the UK?

Transportation in and around the United Kingdom
Getting around the UK is very simple. Upon arrival, travelers are met with a universal public transport system that covers most of the country. Inner city travel and inter-city travel are both widely accessible.
Buses are often the most reliable form of transport in the city - though make sure to use the famous London Underground train network when in the capital, so you can experience the world’s first underground metro system.
Many of the UK’s major cities - London, Manchester, and Liverpool - offer bike sharing programs for the public. Make sure to adhere to road bike rules and use cycle lanes.

How to get from the airport to the city
The UK’s largest airport is London Heathrow Airport (LHR). The majority of international airlines will fly to and from there.
The easiest way to get to central London from the airport is to use the Heathrow Express, a frequent train service that will take you to Paddington Station.
Most major UK airports will have designated bus or train services that take passengers to the nearest city. If you find yourself arriving at an awkward time, then taxi services are always a valuable resource.
