Tapping in and out

[Aaron1]

This weekend (Saturday) I will be travelling from Cambridge to Canons Park underground and back

Normally when going through London I get the greater Anglia travelcard which obviously is unlimited tube journeys but this weekend I notice Greater Anglia are running bus replacement service part of the route which I don't really to be doing so I will get the train from Cambridge to Kings Cross £9.40 return with Railcard discount, then I will travel by tube to Canons Park (changing lines at Wembley Park) this is the first time I would have ever tapped in and out, am I right in thinking I only need to tap in at Kings Cross and out at Canons Park and same for the return journey, and I don't need to tap anything at Wembley Park when changing lines?

I would rather not make a mistake and be charged anymore than I need to pay

Indeed, no need to tap anything at Wembley Park when changing trains. Just step across the platform from the Metropolitan Line train to the Jubilee Line train.

Hi @Aaron1 yes that's correct, you just need to tap at Kings Cross St. Pancras underground station and at Canons Park underground station. By the way if you have an Oyster card instead of a contactless card, then you could add your railcard to get a discount: https://tfl.gov.uk/fares/free-and-discounted-travel/national-railcard-discount.
