On the day

Door to door, one fixed price.

Travelling to The Ritz, 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: pickups run from Arlington Street at the hotel’s side entrance, where the doormen know to expect pre-booked chauffeurs — smoother than stopping on Piccadilly itself.

01

Both directions, one price

The Ritz to Eurotunnel Folkestone or the reverse — the fixed fare from £155 holds either way.

02

Luggage handled

Between the The Ritz lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.

03

Every charge included

Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.

04

Met in person

A named chauffeur with your board at Eurotunnel Folkestone, and a car at the door at The Ritz — no rank, no app, no waiting on a stranger.

Worth knowing

The rail alternative

Pickups run from Arlington Street at the hotel’s side entrance, where the doormen know to expect pre-booked chauffeurs — smoother than stopping on Piccadilly itself.

Timing

The 72-mile run typically takes 2h 10–3h 05. Your driver reads the live traffic and, inbound, times the pickup to your actual sailing.
