How to book cheap train tickets from Leicester to Merthyr Tydfil

Traveling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Leicester to Merthyr Tydfil during off-peak hours.

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. For example, if you are travelling from Leicester to Merthyr Tydfil, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
