| Gatwick
to / from Dover By Public & Private Transport |
For
travellers connecting to a cruise ship at Dover, we have a dedicated
page laying out the public and private transport options available.
|
 |
For
many destinations in South East England there are no direct services
to Gatwick, despite the geographic proximity. Transfers may involve
a tedious interconnection in Central London.
Cost & Frequency
By public transport the only viable option is by rail. There are
trains every 5 or 10 minutes from Gatwick
to London's Victoria Station and other nearly as frequent trains
to London Bridge station. From these two stations, most towns in the
south east of England are served.

Gatwick - South East England |
Railways
are privatised in the United Kingdom. You may use several companies
travelling from Gatwick, but all are integrated for ticketing purposes.
Prices are very complex, Saver return fares are walk up tickets available
on the day heavily discounted - but you cannot travel before 09:30,
Monday to Friday.
Use the 'trainline' link right - for timetables and available fares. |
 |
For
overseas visitors the big problem with train tickets is that there
are no true etickets at the moment, so you miss the reasonable advance
purchase fares. Tickets ordered online can only be sent to UK postal
addresses.
There is an option where you can order online and pickup the tickets
on arrival at a special ticket machine. The good news is that Gatwick
is one of the few stations where such a machine is located. |
