You can also get travel passes for 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, or a month. Those
allow you unlimited tube travel which is great when you're hitting multiple
places in a day. I'm not sure it's still true, but 10 years ago the travel
pass was also good for a huge discount off regional rail tickets, eg to
Hampton Court. You might be required to also get a photocard if you get a
longer pass.
