What you need to do is go to www.ticketsto.com and buy a 6 zone Visitors
Travelcard. This will save you a few bucks and you don't need a photo
card. Visitors Travelcards can only be purchased outside the UK.
6 zone, 7 day, adult is $69 plus shipping.
And the same ticket, purchased in London on arrival, costs the same, but
without the additional shipping charges. And you do need a photocard,
but that's free!
However, a one week Zones 1-2 Travelcard (which is probably all you need
once you have a day return to Victoria) only costs £20.20, which
converts to around $36. And a zone 1-3, which really covers all the
zones you could possibly need, except the return to Heathrow, costs
£23.80, which converts to $43. Plus a daily return ticket to
Leatherhead, which can be had for as little as £6.00 ($10) per day,
although usually a little more.
