How to book cheap train tickets from Gillingham (Dorset) to Ashford Kent

Travelling in off-peak train times

Taking advantage of Off-Peak train tickets is another effective way to save on your train journey from Gillingham (Dorset) to Ashford Kent.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Gillingham (Dorset) to Ashford Kent for various reasons, such as your age (including the 16-25 Railcard or Senior Railcard) or options geared towards group travel (Family & Friends Railcard and Two Together Railcard).

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%

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.
