Tourists normally use zone 1 where most of the tourist attractions are located, along with a lot of the popular hotel districts. Some of London's trendy neighbourhoods like Camden and Notting Hill are located in Zone 2.

The avoiding zone 1 fare is defined by changing between the Overground and Underground at Camden Road/Town. However, due to limitations in the way interchanges are stored on the Oyster system it also works if you change at Clapham High Street/North.

Stratford and several other stations have been moved from Zone 3 to the new Zone 2/3. What this means is that the Zone will change depending on direction of travel. Travelling between these stations and central London will actually be cheaper.

For most tickets, travel through Zone 1 is more expensive than journeys of similar length not crossing this zone. The zone contains all the central London districts, most of the major tourist attractions, the major rail terminals, the City of London, and the West End.
