The journey between London City and Enfield is roughly 16 miles by road, typically via the A13, A406 North Circular and Limehouse Link.

Enfield sits roughly to the north-north-west of London City. By distance across all the areas we cover from London City, this route is an average-length transfer by our usual London City standards — the 39th shortest of the 64 areas we cover from London City, by road distance — useful context if you are weighing up Enfield against a nearby postcode for the same trip.
Distance and time are approximate, measured by road and intended as a guide only. For airport pickups we track your flight and time the journey to your landing, building in extra for traffic so you are not left waiting.
The London City–Enfield run is roughly 16 miles, usually along the A13, A406 North Circular and Limehouse Link, with Enfield sitting to the north-north-west of the airport. Enfield is north London's northernmost borough, bordering Hertfordshire with a mix of suburbs and green space.
London City Airport is in the Royal Docks in east London, the closest airport to the City and Canary Wharf.
Plenty of people use “taxi” loosely for any hired car, but a licensed minicab is a distinct, regulated category from a black cab: no hailing on the street, a booking made ahead of time, and separate private hire licensing for both car and driver. This transfer runs on that same basis — booked ahead, fully licensed, fare fixed before you set off. On this specific route, Enfield lies to the north-north-west of London City, a journey of around 16 miles — an average-length transfer by our usual London City standards compared with our other London City routes, though the licensed, pre-booked model is identical whichever direction you are travelling.
the A13, A406 North Circular and Limehouse Link are at their busiest on weekday mornings and early evenings around London City to Enfield, as commuter traffic overlaps with airport and local trips. Early or late weekday journeys benefit from extra time in the schedule; quieter periods fall on evenings, weekends and school holidays. Whatever the traffic, your driver plans the route in advance and the fare does not change.
We confirm where your driver will meet you well before travel day, and for airport connections the flight is tracked so the pickup follows your actual landing time. The normal airport routine still sits either side of the drive — check-in and security if you are departing, passport control and baggage reclaim if you are arriving — and both are covered by the waiting time built into the fare.
Sort out group size and luggage when you book, not on the day: four passengers and two large cases fit a saloon well, while an estate, MPV or 8-seater handles more — extra suitcases, pushchairs or sports bags included. This kind of journey sees more demand over school holidays and summer, so booking with some notice makes it easier to get the vehicle sized correctly.
Booked this as a single taxi ride? The same fixed fare, driver and vehicle are available for more than one journey:
An executive car with a professional driver for business trips and special occasions.
A company account for corporate airport travel.
Airport meet & greet, if you would rather be met inside arrivals.
A bigger group travelling together with minibus transfers.
Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
A day out further afield with a private tour.
