Taxis to all five Southampton cruise terminals from Heathrow, Gatwick, London or your home, from £140 in a saloon from Heathrow.
The Port of Southampton calls itself Europe's leading turnaround cruise port: its five terminals handle more than 500 cruise calls and about 3 million passengers a year. We take cruise passengers there from home, from London and from the airports. From Heathrow a saloon costs £140, or £148 when we collect you at the airport, because Heathrow charges £8 for the car park where your driver meets you.

Many cruise passengers fly in to Heathrow, Gatwick or Southampton Airport. We meet you in arrivals with a name board and drive you straight to the port. Leave enough time: flights can be late and the roads into the docks are busy on turnaround days. If your flight lands on the morning you sail, tell us and we will plan the pick-up with you.
See the Heathrow to Southampton taxi, the Southampton Airport taxi or the Gatwick airport taxi.
Book your pick-up from the cruise terminal for the day your ship returns. Disembarkation takes time, so we track the ship's arrival and plan the pick-up time with you. Your driver meets you with a name board when you come out. We drive you home or to your flight from Heathrow or Gatwick.
