We'll be arriving in Gatwick and have two choices of trains into London Victoria: The Gatwick Express and a Southern train.
Otherwise a novel option is to buy a London Travelcard for a day or a week at Gatwick and buy a ticket to East Croydon for a few pounds and then use the travelcard for unlimited London transit by trains, buses, tube the rest of the day or week.
Maybe it's still cheaper to buy a ticket to Victoria and then a one day 1-2 zone card but i think the difference is only a few pounds.
