Known both ends
Our drivers know the Piccadilly approach and the Eurotunnel Folkestone pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
The Dilly to Eurotunnel Folkestone · Hotel route
A fixed-price chauffeur between The Dilly and Eurotunnel Folkestone — 73 miles, typically 2h 10–3h 05, in either direction. Booked in advance, met in person, sailing tracked on the way in.

What to expect
Travelling to The Dilly, 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: cars collect from the Denman Street corner rather than Piccadilly itself — a calmer thirty-yard walk the doormen will point you to.
