Take the train from London to Antwerp and make your journey a special one. Not only does this trip involve travelling by rail underneath the Atlantic Ocean, but you’ll be able to forego all the stresses of air travel by going straight from city centre to city centre – no queues at all, just board the train and away you go!
Generally, even if you’re travelling in Standard Class, you’ll get much more legroom than you would when flying – if you’re feeling like really travelling in style you can bump yourself up to First Class too! Both Eurostar and Thalys trains have exemplary First Class carriages with plenty of great perks, like complimentary meals.
You’ll travel from London St-Pancras to Brussels-Midi station, where you’ll usually switch for a Thalys train (or an SNCB train), and from there it’s straight on to Antwerp Central station. You’ll be able to hop off the train with your luggage and get straight into exploring the city if you want! Nearby attractions include Antwerp Zoo and The Rubens House.
