hi, you need to pencil out what youre going to do/see and compare if it worth it to you to buy a card. we dont know what you want to do/see so you will have to do it. also, some of the places will have free days depending on the attraction. readup on them or get RS book that covers days on/off and free days. The individual attraction web site will also have info and i will 2x check anyway on days/times open. when it comes to travel, i travel solo so i will get an Oyster card. i love the tube system there so i use it alot or walk depending on where i need to go and how much i need to do. happy trails.

Well to give you answers we need to know what sort of a traveler you are; if not we can't answer accurately: You say, "We". How many is "we"? Kids? Young kids? Seniors? Very olds? Have you been to England or London before? What sorts of things interest you? History? Royalty? Churches? Art? Bells? Factories? Odd museums? Walks? Harry Potter? World Wars? Tudor times? Civil War? Architecture? Etc.? London has it all - what interests you? What caused you to choose London? What caught your imagination? Can you - all of you - do lots of steps and stairs? Any impairments? Your imaginative sentence structure confuses me. Are you asking if you are traveling in November? I would have no way of knowing. It would be on the tickets. Are you aware just how very short the days are in November and how late and early dawn and sunset will be? What is more important to you - money or time or comfort? Do you want to "see everything quickly" or take your time and see and understand more? Good luck with your planning,,,
