Hi Everyone,

Can anyone help me? I'm attending a course held in London at the end
of the month and will need to travel from Victoria to Euston station
in the morning and then the reverse journey at the end of the day. I
don't enjoy travelling by tube or by bus so by Taxi is my only
option.

What I wanted to know was how long would this journey take in the
morning and the evening and how much would you think the cost will
be?
I need to be at Euston by 08:30 in the morning and then leave there
at
around 16:30.

Thanks in advance,

Why not use the tube? It's direct by the Victoria Line, the fastest
in central London. Must be faster than taxi at those times.

Errrr....

I read that. When travelling, enjoyment barely comes into it. You want to
arrive, right?

Surely, to paraphrase the old proverb, it is better to travel
enjoyfully than to arrive

Or, more seriously, it is rare that
travel time is the only criterion in making travel plans - we all have
some regard to cost, comfort, ease-of-use, etc etc.
