How it works
Travelling to The Connaught, your driver meets you at the Southampton Cruise Port passenger terminal with a name board, your sailing tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: carlos Place curves privately past the front door, and the hotel’s doormen manage the kerb — your chauffeur is signalled in the moment you appear.
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.
Between the The Connaught lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
A named chauffeur with your board at Southampton Cruise Port, and a car at the door at The Connaught — no rank, no app, no waiting on a stranger.
