Your bus will arrive at Victoria Station, in London, which is situated on Buckingham Palace Street, in the centre of the city.

Both companies service this route with great success and comfort.

You will, unfortunately, not be allowed to take a domestic animal on the bus, with neither Flixbus or Blablabus. However, both companies have a friendly tolerance towards service animals under certain conditions. Your service pet will need to be harnessed, with their name and line of duty clearly marked on their harness. They will also need to have their paperwork, which will include their inoculation history. If they are large animals that may unsettle fellow passengers, the driver has the discretion to request that you muzzle the animal for the duration of the journey.
With bus journeys that cross international borders, you will need to have certain documentation on hand before you board.

This trip is quite long by bus and may require you to travel during the night, which means your devices such as E-books will need to be back lit. Eat before you depart or stock up on snacks for the journey. If you would like to sleep, then a pillow and a warm jacket is a great addition to your Lille to London journey.
