How to Travel from London to Venice
Travelling to Venice is easy if you are staying or live in London, with buses, trains and flights available. Flying is comfortably the fastest way to travel, at just over 2 hours, but you can stop off at other European destinations like Milan and Paris if you take the train. Buses are also a cheap option, but take over a day to make the journey, so won't be for everyone.
