We arrange door-to-door travel around your flight, cruise check-in, passenger numbers and luggage requirements, with an appropriate private vehicle confirmed before collection.

Long-Distance Private Transfers

Looking for a Southampton taxi to Heathrow, Gatwick or London?

Southampton Transfer provides pre-booked long-distance private transfers between Southampton Cruise Port, Southampton hotels, Heathrow Airport, Gatwick Airport and London. We do not provide short local taxi journeys. Each quotation is prepared for the complete journey, passenger numbers and cruise-luggage requirements.

Passengers often search for this service as a Southampton taxi, but Southampton Transfer provides pre-booked private-hire journeys for long-distance airport, London, hotel and cruise-port travel rather than short local taxi trips.

We also collect passengers arriving at Heathrow, Gatwick and London hotels for direct travel to Southampton Cruise Port or an overnight Southampton hotel.

Pre-Cruise Hotel Transfers

Staying in Southampton before your cruise?

We provide long-distance private transfers from Heathrow, Gatwick and London direct to your Southampton hotel — pre-booked private transfers for the full distance, with vehicles selected for your passengers and complete cruise luggage. We are not a local taxi service; we specialise in the long-distance journey to your hotel.
