How to book cheap train tickets from Waterbeach to Ely

Traveling in off-peak train times

If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Waterbeach to Ely can result in significant cost savings.

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

Split Tickets for greater savings

Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. For example, if you are travelling from Waterbeach to Ely, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
