How to get to Cambridge.

 

Rail

There is a fast, frequent rail service from both London Kings Cross (50 mins) and London Liverpool Street (1hr 10mins) 
(WAGN freephone Tel: 0800 566566). There are also good connections from
Scotland and the North via Peterborough, and regional services from Birmingham and the Midlands, East Anglia and the Northwest.

 

Air

Stansted Airport is the nearest international airport to Cambridge – just a 30 minute train ride or 60 minutes by bus. A taxi will cost approx  £50. If you take the bus or train once in the city centre you can get a cab or take a 15 minute walk.

Heathrow affords less easy access. You will need to take the Heathrow express train to central London (15 mins) and then get a train to Cambridge from Kings Cross (45 mins) or Liverpool Street (60 mins). Alternatively you can take a bus to Cambridge (approx 2-3 hours).  Do not take a taxi from Heathrow as it is very expensive.

 

Road

Cambridge has excellent communication links,  accessed by the M11 from the South and London (M25), and by the A14 from the North (A1) and from the East coast.
