How it works
Door to door, one fixed price.
Travelling to The Waldorf, your driver meets you at the Southampton Cruise Port passenger terminal with a name board, your sailing tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the Aldwych crescent gives the Waldorf a generous kerb between two theatres — cars wait at the main doors except at theatre turn-out, when we stage on Kingsway.
Sailing tracked
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
Known both ends
Our drivers know the Aldwych approach and the Southampton Cruise Port pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
Luggage handled
Between the The Waldorf lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Cars & capacity
The Waldorf to Southampton Cruise Port from £197.
Six classes, one standard of care. Saloon, one way, off-peak. Rush hour, nights (10pm–6am) and bank holidays cost more; the return leg is 5% off when booked together — your quote shows the exact price before you book. Once you book, the price never changes.
