How Do I Get from Heathrow to Gatwick

How Do I Get from Heathrow to Gatwickの全体像を丁寧に掘り下げてご紹介します。

Your fastest bet is not a direct train. You’ll take the Heathrow Express to London Paddington, then a Tube or taxi to London Victoria, and finally the Gatwick Express. Total time? About 70 minutes, if the gods of public transport smile upon you.

It’s efficient, but it’s also a $60+ journey that requires your full attention. Think of it as a miniature city tour without the sightseeing—just a lot of platform changes and a brief, beautiful glimpse of Hyde Park from the train window.

Pro tip: Buy your tickets on the Trainline app ahead of time. You’ll save about 20% and avoid the frantic, last-minute queue at the kiosk. You look like a pro when you wave your phone at the barrier.

The Budget Traveller’s Choice: The National Express Coach

If your wallet is weeping, the coach is your friend. National Express runs a direct service between Heathrow (Central Bus Station) and Gatwick (South Terminal). It takes about 70 to 90 minutes, costs around £20, and has free Wi-Fi.

Is it glamorous? No. But it’s reliable, you get a seat, and you can watch the Surrey countryside roll by. I once saw a man on this coach finish an entire novel. It was oddly inspiring.

Fun fact: The coach route passes near Windsor Castle. If you’re on the left side of the bus, you might catch a distant glimpse of the Queen’s weekend pad. Wave. She probably won’t wave back.
