London trip...?

Travel from your arrival airport into Central London - They are all served by fast frequent trains to central London

Taxis are expensive and get delayed on our congested roads

Within London public transport is excellent - includes the Underground (Subway), 500 bus routes, Light Rail and National Rail. Within the Greater London payment is by Oyster Card or Visitor Oyster Card. See www.tfl.gov.uk

Eurostar trains run frequently from London St Pancras International to Paris Gare du Nord taking 2 hours 15 minutes city centre to city centre (Paris time is 1 hour ahead of London). Book well in advance for the cheapest fares
