Head to the Natural History Museum for an afternoon marveling at the wonders of the natural world. Beware the frighteningly lifelike animatronic T-Rex display that terrorizes museum-goers.

London enjoys some spectacular green spaces too and when the weather’s warm the parks come alive. Hampstead Heath offers sprawling acreage and several public ponds you can enjoy a summer dip in.

For a touch of the trendy and the hip, march down to Shoreditch and enjoy craft beer, boutique shopping and a wide and satisfying range of bushy beards. Brick Lane is populated with vintage clothes and record shops and gives way to Spitalfields Market which houses yet more shopping.

The best way to take in London is to jump aboard a ferry. Sluice down the Thames and watch as the city flexes its best. The Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, and the Southbank are all on display.

How do I get from Heathrow to the city center?

You can travel from London’s Heathrow Airport to the city center via the Underground or tube, train, and bus.

#The Underground

The Picadilly Line is the most cost-effective way to travel between Heathrow and London. The journey time comes in at under an hour (approximately 56 minutes), and trains run frequently so wait time, even during off-peak hours, should never be longer than 10 minutes.

Heathrow has three underground stations, one for terminals 2 and 3, and then one each for terminals 4 and 5.

The underground stations for Terminals 2 and 3 are located away from the terminal buildings themselves but are easily accessed via a pedestrian subway.

The underground stations for terminals 4 and 5 are located in directly underneath the terminals in the terminal basements.

Tickets can be bought from all underground stations. A single fare from Zone 6 is £6.00. Alternatively, you can buy a one-day travel card for £18.10. This gives you unlimited travel in Zones 1-6. An off-peak version of this ticket will cost £12.70

#Bus

The National Express runs buses between Heathrow and central London. They are another cost-effective way of getting from the airport to the city. However, they do not run as frequently.

Busses do not depart from any of the passenger terminals, but rather from the Central Coach Station at the airport which sits between Terminals 2 and 3; a few minutes walk away.

The National Express service is not exclusive to London and run bus routes up and down the country. This makes it an excellent option for people looking to travel from Heathrow to other cities.

You cannot buy tickets direct from the driver, so they must be purchased in the bus terminal or online in advance. Unless you buy a Fully Flexible fare, for which you can amend your departure time at no extra cost, your ticket (a Standard fare) will guarantee you a seat on a bus at a specific departure time.
