The Ned to Eurotunnel Folkestone · Hotel route
A fixed-price chauffeur between The Ned and Eurotunnel Folkestone — 70 miles, typically 2h 10–3h, in either direction. Booked in advance, met in person, sailing tracked on the way in.

On the day
Travelling to The Ned, 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: poultry’s kerb is short and monitored; drivers time arrival to your call down, and the doormen turn cars efficiently — the pre-booked slot is the whole game here.
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
Between the The Ned 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.
Our drivers know the City of London approach and the Eurotunnel Folkestone pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
