Dover Cruise Terminal to London Private Transfer

Your driver meets you at the terminal with your name on a board.

A private transfer from Dover Cruise Terminal to central London hotels or addresses, with a Meet and Greet service where your driver arrives 15–20 minutes early holding a name board. The chauffeur assists with luggage and drives you directly to your destination in a private vehicle sized for your group, with buffer time built in for traffic so you arrive on schedule.

The Experience

Your chauffeur arrives at least 15–20 minutes before your scheduled pickup time and meets you inside the cruise terminal with your name on a board sign. They handle your luggage and escort you to the vehicle, which is sized for your party: a sedan for up to two adults, a minivan for two to four, a seven-seater van for five to seven, or a minibus for larger groups. The route to central London takes around two hours, with time factored in for traffic delays so you're never late.

Drop-off is available across central London postcodes including Soho, West End, Mayfair, Kensington, Bloomsbury, Covent Garden, and areas east of the City like Tower Hill, Liverpool Street, and Canary Wharf. You can specify your hotel or any private address within these zones when you book. Each traveler can bring one suitcase and one carry-on bag. Foldable wheelchairs are transported but the vehicles are not wheelchair accessible, so contact the operator beforehand if you have mobility equipment or excess luggage.
