Green Line Bus From Victoria to Windsor
|
Green
Line Bus - Victoria to Windsor
A
cheaper alternative to the train is to take the Green Line coach
that starts out from Victoria.
The fares are variable and can be very cheap for visitors as most
of the customers of this service travel into London in the morning
and back out in the evening. Visitors will travel the exact opposite
and the bus company puts its lowest fares on at the times when visitors
travel.
|
|
The
coach starts out at the Green Line coach station behind Victoria
rail station and picks up at Hyde Park Corner, Kensington High Street,
Olympia and Hammersmith amongst others. The bus stops right outside
the castle, so you can't miss your stop. The destination of the
bus is not Windsor, but Bracknell.
