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,

Jeremy

If you arriving at Victoria from the south, have you considered changing at
East Croydon and catching a Thameslink train to Kings Cross Thameslink, and
then getting a taxi to Euston from there?

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.

Or even walking - it is only about 10 minutes' walk from t'other to
which.

on.

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

With luggage I'd allow more than 10 minutes from Thameslink to Euston.

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.
