Getting in and out of Kingston
Kingston town centre is busy, and its one-way system around the Bentall Centre and the market place takes some getting used to. Our drivers know it well, including the best places to drop off and collect near the shops, the riverside and Kingston station. We can pick you up from Kingston Bridge, the Market Place or a quieter side road close by.
Kingston station has trains towards Waterloo and round the local loop line, but for many journeys a car is simpler, especially with bags or at night.
Hospital, university and work
Kingston Hospital on Galsworthy Road is one of our most frequent destinations. We take patients to appointments and bring them home afterwards, with time allowed for getting in and out of the car. Please tell us if you need extra help or space.
Students and staff at Kingston University use us between campus buildings, halls and stations, and at the start and end of term with luggage. Business customers book us for meetings in the town and travel to Heathrow.
Airports from Kingston
Kingston is well placed for Heathrow. A common route crosses Kingston Bridge and heads through Hampton and along the A312 to the airport, typically in 25 to 35 minutes. Gatwick typically takes 45 to 60 minutes via the A3, M25 and M23. Families with a lot of luggage often choose our 7 seater taxi so everyone travels together.
Nights out and events
Kingston has a lively evening scene, with restaurants along the river and theatre at the Rose Theatre. Instead of worrying about the last bus, book a car home at a fixed fare. We cover the whole area, from the town centre to Norbiton, Coombe and Kingston Hill.
Travelling with a dog to one of the vets in Kingston? Our pet friendly taxi service is designed for that.
Richmond Park and days out
Kingston Gate, one of the entrances to Richmond Park, is close to the town centre. The park is a popular place for walks and cycling, and we often drop off and pick up visitors there. Hampton Court Palace is also a short drive away, across the river. For a day out, book a drop-off in the morning and a return time in the afternoon.
Travelling from Kingston to London stations
Kingston station has trains to Waterloo, but many journeys from the town need a different London terminus. We run from Kingston to Paddington, Euston, King's Cross, Victoria and London Bridge, which saves changing trains with luggage. Typically the drive into central London takes 45 to 60 minutes, and longer at rush hour. We can also collect you from any of these stations when you come back.
