How to book cheap train tickets from Canterbury West to Folkestone

Traveling in off-peak train times

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

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%
