Travel Information
The Royal Holloway Conference Service provides up-to-date travel information. We repeat this information below for your convenience.
By air
Royal Holloway is situated in Egham, Surrey, 40 minutes from London Waterloo, a mile from the M25 and a mere fifteen minutes from Heathrow Airport by car. It is also accessible from London City or Gatwick airports and others.
Train connections to the London airports can be checked/booked through the website of National Rail. From Heathrow, taxi or bus are by far the best options.
By taxi
If you intend to take a taxi from the airport or during your stay, we strongly recommend that you book in advance from the following companies, as London black cabs can be very expensive.
