How to book cheap train tickets from London to Cambridge
Season Tickets for frequent travel
For frequent travelers between London and Cambridge, consider a Season Ticket, providing unlimited travel between specified stations for different durations, such as weekly, monthly, annual, or flexi. Alongside substantial savings, enjoy the convenience of not having to buy a ticket for each journey.
Network Railcard for South East England
For only a small annual fee, you can save 1/3 on most fares in South East England, including routes in and out of London, with the Network Railcard. Covering both standard and off-peak tickets, this railcard is particularly beneficial for those who travel regularly within this region.
Traveling in off-peak train times
Taking advantage of Off-Peak train tickets is another effective way to save on your train journey from London to Cambridge. These tickets are generally cheaper and can be used during quieter periods, typically outside of morning (6:30 AM–9:30 AM) and evening (4:00 PM–7:00 PM) rush hours on weekdays.

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%
Splitting tickets involves buying separate, cheaper tickets for different parts of your journey on the same train instead of just one ticket for the entire trip. For instance, if you're traveling from London to Cambridge, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket. This method is perfectly legal and often doesn't require leaving your seat.
Book in advance to save an average of 61%
Advance Tickets are usually released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can be significantly cheaper than tickets purchased closer to departure. By planning your trip from London to Cambridge ahead of time and securing your tickets early, you can save up to 61% on the cost of your travel.
Travel in a group to save 1/3
If you are planning a trip with a group of three to nine people, take advantage of ⅓ off standard fares with group travel discounts, offered by many train companies, perfect for journeys with your family, friends, or colleagues.
