You don`t need to look at London bus routes for that. Look at the National Express website, their buses go from victoria to heathrow

National Express bus website is very clear, buses run frequently to all the major airports.

take the District line tube to Acton Town, then the Piccadilly Line to Heathrow.

ow, thank you for your quick replies, but the thing is i don't know what time i'm going to be arriving at victoria, so i don't really want to pre book my ticket as i'll probably be late or have to hang around for ages. Plus i only wanted to spend £1 on a bus fare (with my oyster card) as i'm going to be spending quite a bit over the next few days

[ooh-la-la]

i am thinking about doing that sara, but i just thought going on bus is cheaper and although it's longer, i actually prefer taking the bus as i don't feel so trapped

No direct bus from Victoria to Heathrow - Best on offer is changing 3 times and an average time of 2 hours plus!!!

Victoria Station
Take the Route Bus 148 from Stop: G
(towards White City Bus Station)

Shepherd's Bush (Central Line)
Take the Route Bus 607 from Stop: C
towards Belmont Road (UB8)

The Greenway
Take the Route Bus A10 from Stop: BD
towards Heathrow Central Bus Station

Is there any particular reason that you can't use the Underground? It would be simpler.

By Underground:
Take a westbound train on either the Circle Line or the District Line for 2 stops, to South Kensington. Transfer to a westbound Piccadilly Line train. Some trains serve terminals 1. 2, 3 and 4. Others serve terminals 1, 2,3 and 5. The total journey time is approximately 1 hour. (If travelling by train to London, buy a ticket to 'Zone 6' which will include your Underground travel to the airport.)

By Underground and National Rail:
Take a westbound Circle Line train for 7 stops to Paddington. Then take the Heathrow Express to the airport. Again the total journey time is about 1 hour but this route is useful if you're travelling by train into London as you can book a through ticket to Heathrow.

By bus:
Walk to Victoria Coach Station. (It's fairly well-signposted but it's quite a hike, especially with luggage. Allow 15 to 20 minutes). Then take service 033, 403, 501 or 504 to Heathrow Central Bus Station. Buses leave on the hour and half hour (but with some gaps in the schedule, so you might have to wait for nearly an hour if you've just missed a bus) and take about 45 minutes. (But remember to allow further time, of perhaps 20 minutes, to get to your terminal from there).

PS:
Some of your posts weren't there when I started checking my facts. Oyster Cards aren't valid on the buses I've listed.
