How it works
Door to door, one fixed price.
Travelling to Claridge’s, your driver meets you at the Eurotunnel Folkestone passenger terminal with a name board, your sailing tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the Brook Street frontage allows a brief kerbside stop; for longer loads the doormen direct cars to Davies Street, and your chauffeur will already know which.
Sailing tracked
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
Met in person
A named chauffeur with your board at Eurotunnel Folkestone, and a car at the door at Claridge’s — no rank, no app, no waiting on a stranger.
Luggage handled
Between the Claridge’s lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.

Local knowledge
Good to know about Claridge’s to Eurotunnel Folkestone.
The rail alternative
The nearest station to Claridge’s is Green Park (Jubilee, Piccadilly, Victoria) — useful travelling light, less so with a full case load bound for Eurotunnel Folkestone.
Local knowledge
Mayfair’s one-way system means Bond Street traffic rarely touches Brook Street directly — morning departures to Heathrow run quickest before 7am.
At the hotel end
The Brook Street frontage allows a brief kerbside stop; for longer loads the doormen direct cars to Davies Street, and your chauffeur will already know which.
Timing
The 73-mile run typically takes 2h 10–3h 05. Your driver reads the live traffic and, inbound, times the pickup to your actual sailing.
