Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Get the paid shuttle bus if you're tight on time to avoid missing the train.
βœ“Book train tickets via the app for easy management and changes.
βœ“Wear appropriate clothing for the surrey bike ride, not a long floaty dress.
βœ“Give yourself plenty of time to find your platform at the train station.
βœ“Consider taking a taxi back to the port if the bus queue is long.
