How it works
Door to door, one fixed price.
Travelling to The Dorchester, 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 Dorchester keeps one of the few true forecourts on Park Lane, so your chauffeur waits off the carriageway, directly beneath the entrance awning.
Sailing tracked
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
Luggage handled
Between the The Dorchester lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Met in person
A named chauffeur with your board at Dover Cruise Port, and a car at the door at The Dorchester — no rank, no app, no waiting on a stranger.
