how do i get from sydenham to earls court on the tube,or kensington, have to be there for around ten so which way and what tube

[bigmarco]

Hi Steve no tube in the Sydenham area so will need to use the Train into central and then connect with the tube. You can plan your journey with the TFL journey planner have a look.

Steve, there are two (overland) train stations in Sydenham.

Lower Sydenham
direct train through to Charing Cross, then a 30 second walk to Embankment tube station.
Then a District line tube to Earl's Court


Sydenham Hill
direct train through to Victoria, then District Line tube to Earl's Court

Steve,

As a rule-of-thumb, whereas North & Central London is covered by the tube network, South London is covered by the overland.
Stations are plentiful, and all lines run into one of the southern London terminals (Victoria, Waterloo, Charing Cross, Blackfriars, London Bridge etc).

It's all pretty painless, and the one-day travelcard will cover all your transport options.

I'm assuming you're thinking of a hotel/B&B in the Sydenham area, so I'd suggest you have a look on a map and see what's the nearest station .... it might not be either of the stations I've already mentioned.
But it should take no more than 15-20 mins to get into central London
