How to get to London Zoo?


Recommended Posts

I'm pretty sure you can get trains to St Pancras from Denmark Hill/Peckham Rye as well - easier to reach from Herne Hill. TFL will tell you how long they think it will take to walk from St Pancras to the zoo (www.tfl.gov.uk)

At the weekend you can find some free parking spaces near London Bridge, or train to London Bridge. Then get river boat to Embankment and then tube to Camden and walk. This has been the best option we've had for baby, toddler and parents and great fun. Time wise, we caught river boat at 10.30 ish and left zoo at about 3.15 which meant home easily for tea.

I've been a few times with two small children. I've found easiest as there are no stairs to deal with is Denmark Hill to St Pancras (occasionally need to change at Blackfriars, but easy change) and then bus or walk to the zoo. Quite a long walk, but fine if children in buggy. (If you/children are knackered at the end of the day, there's a black cab rank outside the zoo entrance and it's about ?10 to St Pancras....)

Not sure how journey times compare as it's a while since I did it, but an alternative route is: bus to elephant and castle, then bakerloo line to Regents park, then walk through the park to the zoo. Probably a longer walk than from Camden tube, but lovely to walk through the park.

What about the 37 to Brixton and then the Victoria line all the way to Euston? Victoria line is really quick and the trains are new so easy with a buggy.


A bit of a walk but step free all the way! 29 min walk or you can grab a black cab. It's 7 minutes.


I can't drive either and can second that Denmark hill way would be easy as well. Step free etc. X

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
