How to book cheap train tickets from Whitstable to Canterbury

Traveling in off-peak train times

Off-Peak train tickets are generally cheaper than peak-time tickets, allowing travel outside morning (6:30 AM–9:30 AM) and evening (4:00 PM–7:00 PM) rush hours on weekdays. If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Whitstable to Canterbury can result in significant cost savings.

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Whitstable to Canterbury for various reasons, such as your age (including the 16–25 Railcard or Senior Railcard) or options geared towards group travel (Family & Friends Railcard and Two Together Railcard). Discover more here.

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%

Another option to consider is splitting your tickets, which can save you around an extra 30% on fares. Instead of purchasing a direct ticket from Whitstable to Canterbury, you can split the route into two legs: A to C and C to B.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
