How to get around in Britain

8 Aug

If you’re new to the country and looking for ways to get from G to B, may I suggest these useful resources:

www.trainline.com and www.nationalrail.co.uk – for national train tickets. Prices increase as you get closer to departure date so book in advance to save money.
www.tfl.gov.uk – for planning your journey around London using public transport (including public bicycle rental) or for booking a famous black cab.

www.lastminute.com / www.expedia.co.uk / www.easyjet.com for booking internal flights.

http://www.addisonlee.com/ for booking a private cab collection in London.

CabWise – text CAB to 60835 (from your UK mobile) and you will receive a text with numbers of local cab services.

Of course you could always just look down – if your feet are there, they might be of use.

Our airports also offer great advice on how to access them. Try:
