How Far is Heathrow Airport from Tufnell Park Tube station, North London?
How far is the distance and how long does it take by taxi?
Cheers
Heathrow is on the other side of the city from Tufnell Park. It can take up to an hour by taxi, maybe longer, depending on how heavy the traffic is.
You can take the Underground to Heathrow. Take the Northern Line from Tufnell Park tube station and then transfer to the Piccadilly Line at Leicester Square (via Charing Cross) or Kings Cross/St. Pancras (via Bank). The Piccadilly Line will take you direct to Heathrow.

Any idea?
Someone told me to go by "National Express", is it a good way?
Is the luggage storage place located outside the bus above the wheels?,
When i get off the coach, will the driver remember to open the luggage storage cover for me to take back my luggage -(if i get off the bus, i am afraid the driver will drive away because not every passengers has luggages.)-(maybe I sit far away from the driver, i cannot talk to him at the moment i get off the coach at another door to remind him to let me take back my belongings first. (i assume that one would get off the coach at another door.)
Please forgive me for my silly questions, for i’ve never gone by coach in the uk.
In past travelling experience in package tour, the luggage storage place is located outside the travel coach.
Thanks
Hire a car. Probably be cheaper and less hassle.
If you are unsure of anything just ask the guy at the train station and there are information points at all the mainline stations.

What is the least expensive way to get from Heathrow to the Belsize Park tube station and how would I go?
There will be 2 adults with luggage (one bag and one carry on each) arriving at noon on a Saturday. Thanks so much for your help!
The cheapest way would be to take the tube (London Underground). You can get this direct from the airport terminal and travel on the Piccadilly line to Leicester Square, then change to the Northern line to Belsize Park. The journey would probably take up to a couple of hours allowing for changes.
The cost (maximum £4.00 per person) is a lot less than other options such as Heathrow Express or taxi, but you’d have to carry your luggage around, possibly up some stairs or escalators, and on a Saturday the tube is likely to be pretty crowded.
But it’s definitely the cheapest way and I’ve taken luggage on the tube in this way before, I’d rather save the money to enjoy myself at my destination!
