How to book cheap train tickets from Grantham to Basildon

Split Tickets discount
It may sound odd, but splitting your journey into smaller segments by purchasing separate, cheaper tickets can often lead to significant savings, all while you remain in the same seat for the entire trip. The best part? Trip.com handles these splits for you, meaning you don't have to do any painstaking planning.

Travel during Off-Peak train times
We'd strongly suggest avoiding rush hour crowds by travelling on Off-Peak services, often leading to a cheaper and more peaceful journey. Exact timings vary between providers, but in general, skip travelling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. Off-Peak rates are available all day on weekends and bank holidays.

Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
A wide selection of Railcards is available, many providing 1/3 off most train tickets — from the 16-25 and 26-30 Railcards to Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior options. With the 16-17 Saver, you can even get 50% off. Purchasing and storing your Railcard in the Trip.com app is quick and simple, ensuring instant access to generous discounts whenever you travel.
