    It depends on where you're going to stay in London, and how much you're going to travel around!

    I'm not sure if there are some special offers available, but getting an Oyster card is the easiest (and probably the cheapest) way to travel. The card itself costs about £3, then you can "load" money on it and you just show the card on the underground gates. No matter how much you travel it'll never cost you more than a one-day travelcard would, so I think it's the best option.

    Under-5s
    Children under five can travel free at any time on the Tube, DLR, buses and trams as long as they are accompanied by an adult with a valid ticket.
