Click on any line button (e.g., Central, Northern, Piccadilly) to filter the map and show only that line's stations and route. You can select multiple lines to compare routes. Click again to deselect. This helps plan journeys and avoid crowded lines.

Visit our Universities Filter page to see all major London universities and their nearest tube stations. UCL is near Euston Square (Circle/Hammersmith & City/Metropolitan), Imperial College near South Kensington (Circle/District/Piccadilly), LSE near Holborn (Central/Piccadilly), and King's College near Temple (Circle/District).

Use our Universities Filter map to explore student-friendly areas to live near your London university. Select your campus, adjust the green walking-time control, then add purple tube time to see which neighbourhoods and stations are within a short walk or single tube ride on the same lines. This makes it easier to compare areas like Camden, Kentish Town, Earl's Court, Hammersmith, Waterloo, London Bridge and Mile End by actual travel time to UCL, Imperial, LSE, King's and other universities.

Yes. When you click a purple station on the map, the station info card includes both “Zoopla rental search” and, where available, “Rightmove rental search” buttons. These open pre-filtered rental searches centred on that station, focused on studio to 2-bedroom flats up to around £2,000 per month within roughly half a mile. It is a quick way to compare rental options that match the journey times you have already explored on the map.

Use our interactive map to visualize your route. Filter by specific lines to see connections, click stations to view details, and check university locations if traveling for education. For real-time journey planning with times, use TfL Journey Planner alongside our visual map.

You can view and use the free interactive London Tube map right here at londontubes.co.uk. It shows all 11 Underground lines plus the DLR with real-time filtering — no download required. For a printable PDF version, Transport for London (TfL) offers the official static tube map at tfl.gov.uk.

This is an independent interactive version of the London Tube map built using TfL open data. It is not the official TfL map, but it includes all the same lines and stations. The advantage is live filtering, university proximity search, and mobile optimisation not available on the official static map.

The London Underground map is officially called the "Tube map" and was first designed by Harry Beck in 1931. It is a schematic (not geographically accurate) diagram showing the connections between all 11 Underground lines, the DLR, Overground, and Elizabeth line. Our interactive London Tube map is based on TfL open data and updated for 2026.

For east–west journeys use the Central, District, or Elizabeth line. For north–south, the Northern and Victoria lines are fastest. The Circle line connects major stations in a loop. Use our interactive London Tube map to click a line and see exactly which stations it serves, then find your interchange point.
