Taking the Bus from Exeter

The modernised Exeter bus and coach station is found behind the city's main high street on Bampfylde Street, unless passengers have heavy luggage or young children, it is an easy walk from most of Exeter's popular destinations. Local bus services are reliable and all routes stop within a short walk of the bus station. Alternatively city centre taxis are efficient and affordable. One thing to be aware of when taking buses from Exeter to London is the student diaspora; there are many Londoners studying here so, at the end of term, seats on buses and coaches tend to get booked up quickly.

Getting into London by Bus

All services stop at Victoria Coach Station on Buckingham Palace Road. This is next to Victoria train station and a ten minute walk to the palace itself. Popular theatres around here tend to show family friendly musicals such as Billy Elliott, Wicked and Matilda. Onward journeys by tube can be made on the District, Circle and Victoria lines.
