Overview

A private transfer from Central London to Dover Cruise Port replaces multiple legs of public transport with one direct, door-to-door journey. Your driver collects you from your hotel lobby or address in Central London and drives you straight to the cruise terminal at Dover Cruise Port, with no shared stops or changes along the way.

This London to Dover cruise transfer is timed to your own schedule rather than a fixed departure board, which makes it easier to manage luggage and travel comfortably on the morning you set off for your cruise. It suits cruise passengers, families, and small groups travelling from anywhere in Central London who want a single private vehicle for the whole route to the port, with luggage assistance included at pick-up.

What's Included

  • Private transportation
  • Free extra pick-up waiting time up to 15 minutes
  • WiFi on board
  • Extra Waiting Time After 15 Minutes (Fees will be charged, depending on the vehicle category)
