Bus route guidance: how to get to covent garden?

[mills1992]

Hey everyone!

I’m planning a trip to Covent Garden and could use some help with the bus routes. I’m not super familiar with the area, so I’m a bit lost on how to get there.

Could anyone give me some advice on which bus routes are best for getting to Covent Garden? Specifically, I’m wondering:

1. What are the main bus routes that stop near Covent Garden?
2. Are there any bus stops that are particularly convenient or easy to find?
3. Is there a specific bus number I should look out for?
4. Are there any tips for navigating the bus system to make this easier?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hey!

Sure thing! To get to Covent Garden, you’ve got a few good options. The bus numbers 24, 29, and 176 are your best bets. The 24 and 29 will drop you off near Trafalgar Square, which is just a short walk from Covent Garden. The 176 gets you a bit closer to the area.

You’ll find bus stops for these routes around Trafalgar Square or along The Strand. Both spots are pretty central and well-signposted. If you’re looking for convenience, the 24 or 29 are probably your best choices since they run frequently and get you right into the heart of Covent Garden.

One last tip: check the bus stop signs for real-time updates on when the next bus is arriving, and it’s a good idea to use an Oyster card or contactless payment—it makes getting around smoother.

Hope this helps! Enjoy your visit!

Hey! Just adding my two cents—I find the 14 and 19 buses are also pretty handy for getting to Covent Garden, especially if you’re coming from the west side of the city. They stop at the Charing Cross stop, which is a short walk away.

Also, if you’re traveling during rush hour, it might be worth checking out if there are any service updates or delays. And don’t forget to grab a quick bite or do a bit of shopping while you’re in the area—Covent Garden is full of cool spots to check out!

Safe travels and have fun!
