Getting There

By Train

Each of London's train stations is connected to the city's vast bus and Underground network, and each has phones, restaurants, pubs, luggage storage areas, and London Regional Transport Information Centres.

By Car

Once you arrive on the English side of the Channel, the M20 takes you directly into London. Remember to drive on the left. Two roadways encircle London: The A406 and A205 form the inner beltway; the M25 rings the city farther out. Determine which part of the city you want to enter and follow signposts.

We suggest you keep driving in London to the bare minimum. Because of parking problems and heavy traffic, getting around London by car is not a viable option. If you're arriving in London by car, plan to leave it in a garage and rely on public transportation or taxis. Call ahead and see if your hotel has parking (and what the charges are), or ask the staff to give you the name and address of a garage nearby.
