My family of 4 will be spending 3 days in London before departing on a cruise out of Harwich . Any advice on how to travel from London to Harwich and then from Harwich to Heathrow to return home would be greatly appreciated! The cruise line transfers are way too pricey. Thanks
Hugh, Here is the website:
http://www.harwich.co.uk/cruise_trains.asp This will tell you what you need to know about getting from London to Harwich. Am guessing that you do the same on the return.
You could take the train from London Liverpool Station to Harwich, would have to change in Manningtree. Then to get back to Heathrow, you would have to go back into London then out to Heathrow.
Thanks for this useful info. Is the 5 minute transfer time in Maningtree enough time?
Here is a map of Manningtree station. The site says minimum change time is 2 mins. http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations/sjp/MNG/plan.html?rtnloc=MNG
