Trains from Amsterdam to London
The train from Amsterdam to London crosses the Netherlands, Belgium and the north of France, then goes under the Channel to come up in Kent and run into the capital. You leave from a canal city and arrive in the middle of a far larger city, without an airport at either end. It is the route for people who want to step off at a central station with their luggage already in hand. Search below for the times and fares on your date.

About the Amsterdam to London train
This is a journey with a real border. Allow time at the station for the security and passport checks that happen before boarding, and check the entry rules for your passport before you travel. Decide too whether to book the London to Amsterdam return in the same session; it is covered on its own page and priced separately. You arrive at St Pancras International, a Victorian brick station on the Euston Road in the north of central London, sharing a street with King's Cross. The metro runs beneath it, which puts the West End, the City and the museums of South Kensington within reach without a taxi. London spreads a long way beyond its centre, so the district you choose to stay in shapes the trip more than it would in Amsterdam. The hotels on this page sit closer to Heathrow than to Gatwick, which matters if you plan to fly home. Browse the United Kingdom eSIM plans linked here before you set off.
