London Weekend Breaks By Rail | London Theatre Breaks

One of my favourite city breaks in Europe despite all the new opportunities opening up in the South and the East of Europe will always be London in the UK. yes, I'm talking about UK city breaks to London. If you happen to live in the UK already, then there is a big advantage in not needing to cross any seas, pass any borders and most of all not having to wait around at airports. It's nearly always better to go by train on London Weekend Breaks By Rail from any larger UK city or even from the wider regional rail networks although that may involve an interchange. The wait for a connecting train is never anything like an airport transfer.
