You will notice that we have recommended using a London airport for tours in the north east of England. This is because the rail service from London to Yorkshire and Hadrian's Wall Country is exceptionally frequent and fast.

Although we have mentioned the most convenient airport against each destination one of the London airports could be used as the port of entry for any of the tours, so the journey time from London to the closest railway station for all tours have been included in the list of typical journey times.

The journey times quoted are for a typical train journey between the station nearest to the airport (central London in the case of Heathrow or Gatwick Airports) and the station closest to the hotel. Where there is a change of train en route waiting times may vary so allowance should be made for this when planning your journey.

National Rail Enquiries have an excellent website with interactive timetable information.
