Train

The fastest way to get to Central London is to use the Heathrow Express train which runs every 15 minutes to Paddington Station in the North West of London - Heathrow Express Train Service Brochure. At Paddington you can change for the London Underground or Buses. The service is fast but a bit expensive. A single ticket on the Heathrow Express is £16.50 online, £18.00 at ticket offices and machines, and £23 if purchased onboard. To board this service just head to the basement level of any terminal and follow the many signs for the Heathrow Express.

Heathrow Connect is a much cheaper way to reach Paddington from Heathrow and vice versa, with a single fare of 7.90 GBP (under half the Heathrow Express fare) but has a journey time of 25 minutes against the Express time of 15 minutes.

A cheaper but much slower alternative is to take the London Underground which is easily accessible from Terminals 1,2 and 3 but involves a free trip one stop on the Heathrow Express from Terminals 4 and 5. Heathrow Airport is in Zone 6 of the London Underground and most of the hotels and attractions visitors will use are in Zone 1 or 2. The fare for this trip was £4.00 for an adult single into Central London at the time of writing. If you wish to book train tickets in advance click on the link below.
