St Pancras 'Lovers', London, England

St Pancras is the new Eurostar train terminal in London. This 'Lovers' statue on the upper, main rail level is a popular rendezvous spot.

Getting to St Pancras:
by Tube: The underground station Kings Cross St Pancras leads directly into St Pancras International and is better connected than any other London station with 6 of the major tube lines running through it – Victoria, Hammersmith and City, Piccadilly, Circle Metropolitan line and Northern. Please refer to Transport for London for journey times.

by Train: East Midland trains from St Pancras International and services from nearby King’ s Cross connect St Pancras to the North of England and Scotland, whilst First Capital Connect will help commuters to St Albans, Bedford, Luton and the South of England.

by Car: St Pancras International is also easily accessible by car via the A501 or A5202 and has an NCP car park situated on Pancras Road at the rear of the station. Plan your journey to St Pancras International by car.

River Thames Party Boat, London

Boat Cruises on the River Thames may be about partying, sight-seeing or just...

River Thames Clipper, Millenium Bridge, St. Pauls, London

...fast and pleasant commuting on a Thames Clipper [well, more pleasant than the tube, but perhaps not quite as comfortable as, say, a chauffeur-driven Bentley]...

Journey Planner

For information on getting around London on the Tube, Oyster Cards, Congestion charges, cycling, walking, overground rail, buses, taxis and so on, check Transport for London pages or use the free journey planner above.

Transport Safety:
- As usual beware of pickpockets in crowded buses and tube trains.
- Do not take random 'minicabs' from the street anywhere. These are usually illegal, unmarked taxis without meters, and can result in robbery, assault or very silly costs. Stick with black cabs, pricey but safe and knowledgeable, or call a reputable cab company from your hotel.
