Heathrow
Airport to Baker Street
By
far the most comfortable transfer from Heathrow to Baker Street is
to catch the Heathrow
Express from Heathrow to Paddington then get the Circle Line Underground.
This is quite expensive though, at a fraction of the cost you can
do the trip using the Heathrow
Underground link. This option can be very crowded, but many people
do it and think of the money they're saving. Journey time is about
an hour. You will need to connect at Green Park to the Jubilee Line.

Gatwick
Airport to Baker Street
Take
the Gatwick
Express train direct to Victoria, then Underground to Baker Street
or alternatively the Gatwick
First Capital Connect train to London Bridge.
Taking the First Capital Connect train is slightly cheaper and also
has the advantage of a slightly quicker underground link with Baker
Street. |
Stansted
Airport to Baker Street
There
is a direct coach run by National Express from Stansted to the Regents
Park area, running a true 24x7 service. The National
Express Stansted - Victoria bus stops at Swiss Cottage and Finchley
Road underground as well as Baker Street.
The Stansted
Express train runs direct to Liverpool Street and for this leg
is much faster and reliable than bus. Liverpool Street is quite a
long way from Baker Street, though the Circle Line Underground provides
a direct connection. |
Luton
Airport to Baker Street
The Green Line
Luton Bus operates several times an hour from In front of the
terminal at Luton to Baker Street. There is also an easyBus
minibus shuttle which competes with Green Line on the same route.
There is a direct train service from Luton
to Kings Cross several times an hour. There is no train station
at the airport itself so you get a free bus shuttle from in front
of the terminal to Luton Parkway. At Kings Cross the Circle Line Underground
will take you to Baker Street.

Baker
Street by Taxi
The only worthwhile airport to consider using a taxi from is London
Heathrow. A black taxi from in front of the terminal will cost in
the region of £50, (taxis are metered but fares will vary depending
on time of day and time taken).
A short taxi connection to say Kings Cross will cost around £5-£7,
Waterloo around £10. |
Transfers
For Small Groups & Families
If
there are four or more of you travelling in a group, do explore the
option of chartering your own minibus. For Heathrow especially a minibus
has compelling advantages both economic and practical to using public
transport. |

Dot
2 Dot Hotel Shared Hotel Shuttle Bus To/From Heathrow /Gatwick
The Hotel
bus
shuttle is an established shared minibus service transporting travellers
between Heathrow Airport and their Central London Hotel.
You pay a flat fare per person, whether there is one or four of you.
You will share the minibus with other travellers.
The driver will drop you off at your Central London hotel in the order
which makes most sense given the location of the destination hotels.
Coming back out to the airport, you agree a time slot within which
the minibus will pick you up from your hotel lobby.
The service is well established and is used by many small tour operators.
You should be aware that this is a shared service, not a private taxi
transfer. You may have to wait at the airport 15-20 minutes for the
shuttle and you may get a mini-tour of London if the people on board
have widely dispersed accommodation.
Dot 2 Dot have desks in the terminals and plenty of their own staff available
at the airports to make sure the transfer goes smoothly.
