Airport transportation is very often something that people stress about when arriving in, or leaving, a big city. There are popular choices like taxi or Uber, but in London you can also just take a train from Heathrow into the heart the West End. The London Underground or Tube is a really easy way to save some time and money and get right close to your hotel. #london #heathrow #travel Get my NEW BOOK!
