What to expect
Travelling to Carlton Tower, your driver meets you at the Dover Cruise Port passenger terminal with a name board, your sailing tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the hotel’s crescent drive off Cadogan Place keeps pickups off Sloane Street entirely — board at the door, in the shade of the gardens.

Between the Carlton Tower lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
