How to book cheap train tickets from Rhyl to Cardiff
Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Explore a range of Railcards that typically offer 1/3 off most train tickets, including the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, as well as the 16-17 Saver, which offers 50% off. They’re easy to purchase and store digitally in your Trip.com app, meaning you're only ever a tap away from great savings.
Travel during Off-Peak train times
To enjoy a calmer and often cheaper journey, we recommend choosing Off-Peak services and steering clear of the busy rush-hour periods. While timings differ slightly by operator, it's usually best to avoid travelling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. On weekends and bank holidays, Off-Peak fares apply all day.
Group travel deals
Travelling with a group of 3 to 9 people? Most train companies offer group discounts, allowing you to save up to 1/3 on standard fares. This makes journeys from Rhyl to Cardiff more budget-friendly for families, friends, or colleagues travelling together.
Season tickets for frequent travellers
If you travel between Rhyl and Cardiff on a weekly, monthly, or annual basis, we'd highly recommend a season ticket, which provides unlimited travel between the 2 stations (during specific times) for a set price. Not only will you receive significant savings, but you'll also remove the stress of purchasing individual tickets.
Which train ticket types are available for this route?
Advance train tickets
