How to book cheap train tickets from Exeter to Basingstoke

Season tickets for frequent travelers
If you travel between Exeter and Basingstoke 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.

Travel during Off-Peak train times
For a quieter, better-value trip, try to travel during Off-Peak hours rather than the busiest weekday periods. Although exact times can vary between train companies, the general rule is to avoid the 6:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM windows. At weekends and on bank holidays, Off-Peak pricing typically applies throughout the entire day.

Group travel deals
If you are traveling in a group of 3 to 9 people, you can take advantage of group discounts (offered by most train companies) for up to 1/3 off standard fares. This can make traveling from Exeter to Basingstoke more affordable for families, friends, or colleagues planning a trip together.

Book in advance
Advance tickets, usually released up to 12 weeks before travel, can save you up to 61% on journeys from Exeter to Basingstoke when booked at least 1 week in advance. Savings exclude Anytime fares, and are subject to route availability.
