Can anyone advise the best way ( and cheapest) to vist London coming from

Specifically we are thinking about the best place to park your car with
direct access to an underground line that will take us to the main
sightseeing spots in the capital.

From that direction, you won't really be hitting the Underground, but
I take it from the parking question that you'd be driving up?

So why not bail out of the A2 at Blackheath or Lewisham where you've
got frequent train services to central London taking around twenty
minutes. The latter would let you do the day on a zone 1 - 2
travelcard, and there ought to be somewhere to park in reach of the
station (also on DLR). Just have an A - Z.


There "ought to be", but there isn't. If you come up the A2/M2, then Eltham
or Falconwood would be a better bet. Otherwise, perhaps the M20 to Swanley
for a train to Victoria, then start your tour at Buckingham Palace! Look out
for battered Rolls-Royces!
