Transportation from Dover to London

[mockingbird123]

I am ending my cruise in Southampton/Dover England and flying home from London.  What is the best way to get from the cruise port to London?

[DarrenM]

Dover and Southampton are many many miles apart. 151 miles to be exact.

 

Therefore you cant be at both.

Dover or  Southampton ? 

To central London or to London's Heathrow or Gatwick airports?

Cos  advice depends on which journey.

 

- Train (Southampton or Dover to central London, or Southampton to Gatwick airport) ,

- National Express bus (Southampton or perhaps Dover to central London, or Southampton to Heathrow airport),

- Cruise transfer bus (Dover to either airport),

- Private transfer (either port to either airport).

Hence we need to know which journey

National express will be easy and cheap from either of those ports. Comfy coaches.

 

Trains will also be easy but less cheap.

 

Cruise shuttles will vary but a private car will cost much more.

We were very impressed with the ease of our trip to London on National Express. Ordered the tickets before we left at a discount.

The train will take you all the way to airport.

The train will take you all the way to airport. You may have to change at Victoria station though. Since we stayed a few days in London near that station  we had no changes.
