Never been to Bristol before, just wondering what Ninja experience is of the cheapest/easiest way to get there from London?


(Incidentally, for this)

Megabus is cheapest by far... that looks like a hell of a night out. Might see if my funds can stretch to a trip...seem to have bought a lot of tickets lately!

That looks seriously tasty! Will be in Plymouth then so not as much of a trek.

Nope! It's a funfare price!

+1 on megabus/national express

the bus is actually quicker than getting the train, and gets you closer to subloaded too

Plus Megabus has really comfy seats and power sockets
but incredibly low ceilings for some reason.

coaches are much nicer than buses

i quite like travelling on the national express tbh, i'd go with them, never taken a megabus

Looks like a sick night, I would add Megabus = cheap but trains are worth looking at if you travel at non peak hours. :)
