The Savoy to Dover Cruise Port · Hotel route
A fixed-price chauffeur between The Savoy and Dover Cruise Port — 79 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 Savoy, 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: savoy Court, the hotel’s private approach off the Strand, is famously the only street in Britain where traffic keeps to the right — your chauffeur pulls up directly at the front doors.
Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.
Between the The Savoy lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Our drivers know the Strand approach and the Dover Cruise Port pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
