Sailing tracked

The Dilly to Dover Cruise Port · Hotel route
A fixed-price chauffeur between The Dilly and Dover Cruise Port — 80 miles, typically 2h 20–3h 20, in either direction. Booked in advance, met in person, sailing tracked on the way in.

On the day
Travelling to The Dilly, 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: cars collect from the Denman Street corner rather than Piccadilly itself — a calmer thirty-yard walk the doormen will point you to.
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.
Our drivers know the Piccadilly approach and the Dover Cruise Port pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
Between the The Dilly lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
