Booking Made Simple

How does a Kensington transfer work?

Booking takes about two minutes and your fare is fixed from the start. Here is how a journey works, step by step.

Enter your pickup and drop-off for your Kensington journey on our booking page, or call us. You get an instant, fixed price — no meters and no surge pricing.

Local Knowledge

About Kensington and its transfers

Kensington is one of London's most prestigious areas, taking in the museums of South Kensington, High Street Kensington and Holland Park. Hotel and embassy travel is common here, and Heathrow lies due west along the A4. We provide saloons and executive cars at fixed fares from any Kensington address.

Airport Distances

How far is Kensington from each London airport?

By road distance, London City is usually the shortest run from Kensington, though the fastest journey on the day depends on traffic and which motorway corridor you take — a numerically closer airport can still be the slower option if it means crossing London rather than joining a direct route. Here is roughly how each of the six compares, in normal traffic:

London City — about 14 miles (35–55 min by road), to the west of Kensington.

Heathrow — about 16 miles (25–40 min by road), to the east of Kensington.

Gatwick — about 30 miles (40–60 min by road), to the north of Kensington.

Luton — about 35 miles (40–65 min by road), to the south-south-east of Kensington.

Stansted — about 40 miles (50–80 min by road), to the south-west of Kensington.

Southend — about 45 miles (60–90 min by road), to the west of Kensington.

Planning Ahead

Planning your Kensington journey

For Kensington, the roads are predictably busier on weekday mornings and early evenings, when local commuters and airport traffic both use the main approach roads. Booking an early or late weekday slot is where a little extra time helps most; outside peak hours and on weekends, journeys tend to run more smoothly. Our drivers watch the traffic and adjust the route, not the price.

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.

A quick note on group size and luggage at booking saves any surprise on the day: a saloon is comfortable for four with two large cases, and an estate, MPV or 8-seater takes the extra bags, buggies or kit that a bigger trip brings. Since school holidays and summer tend to be busier for journeys like this, booking a little ahead makes securing the right vehicle straightforward.

Beyond the Airport Run

More Than Just a Kensington Minicab

Most Kensington bookings with us start as an airport transfer, but the same fixed-fare minicab and driver cover plenty more of your travel:

A regular commute or the school run, billed to a business or family account.

A wedding, night out or event transfer, planned to your schedule.

A car kept at your disposal with hourly hire.

A connection on to a cruise port or hotel.

Something sent rather than someone carried, with courier delivery.

Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
