[edit] Get in
The main train line from London Euston to Milton Keynes stops at Tring Station. The station is a couple of miles out of the town so you will need to arrange transport from the station into Tring. During the week day commute you can get a bus, otherwise it will be a taxi.
You can also get a bus from Watford or Hemel Hempstead to Aylesbury. There is also a bus to Luton and Dunstable.
Tring is close to the A41, and very accessible by car.
[edit] Get around
Tring is small enough that you can walk around. If you want to visit the surrounding area you will need a car.
