How to book cheap train tickets from Gloucester to Cardiff Bay

Traveling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Gloucester to Cardiff Bay during off-peak hours.

With a Railcard, you can save up to 1/3 on most rail fares. There are different types of Railcards available, such as the 16–25 Railcard, the Family & Friends Railcard, and the Senior Railcard, each catering to specific groups of travelers. You can discover more about Railcards here.

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%

Instead of purchasing a direct ticket from Gloucester to Cardiff Bay, you can split the route into two legs: A to C and C to B. This often turns out to be more affordable than buying a direct ticket, and you won't even need to leave the train… or often your seat!

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
