Getting There -- Connections are awkward when traveling to Glastonbury by public transportation. No direct train service runs to Glastonbury. You can, however, take a train from London's Paddington Station to Bristol's Temple Meads Train Station (trip time: 1 hr., 40 min.), where you can catch a bus into Glastonbury. Buses run twice an hour from this train station; trip time is 1 1/4 hours.
One National Express bus a day (no. 403) leaves London's Victoria Coach Station at 7pm and arrives in Glastonbury at 10:50pm. For more information and schedules, call tel. 0870/580-8080 or visit www.nationalexpress.com.
If you're driving, take the M4 west from London, then cut south on the A4 via Bath to Glastonbury.
