How it works
A local chauffeur, fixed in advance.
Your chauffeur arrives at your Islington address at the agreed time — engine off, name confirmed, luggage loaded — and the fare is the one agreed when you booked.
Fixed on booking
Airport, station, dinner or the school run — the price is agreed in advance, with tolls and London charges inside it.
London City fluency
Islington to London City is our local bread and butter — 7 miles, typically 20–30 min, from £55.
There before you are
Pre-booked pickups arrive early and wait quietly; flight-tracked airport collections adjust to the plane, not the schedule.
Cars & capacity
Islington from £55.
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.

Local knowledge
Good to know about Islington.
About Islington
Upper Street’s mile of restaurants, the Almeida’s first nights and Georgian terraces that empty towards two airports at once — Islington is north London’s most travelled address.
Local knowledge
Islington splits its loyalties: Luton up the A1, Stansted round the North Circular — door-to-door times are near-identical, so we book whichever flight is cheaper and route accordingly.
Business & commercial
Islington means the Upper Street offices and the media firms on the Old Street fringe. Our drivers know the office entrances and the discreet drop-offs that keep a meeting arrival calm.
Nearest Underground
The tube here is Angel and Highbury & Islington. Useful travelling light — but for luggage, an early flight or a cross-town run, the door-to-door car earns its place.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is TfL-licensed private hire, fully insured and DBS-checked.
Pickup & traffic
A practical note: Upper Street is a red route — cars collect on the side streets off it.
Islington, from the driver’s seat
Upper Street’s mile of restaurants, the Almeida’s first nights and Georgian terraces that empty towards two airports at once — Islington is north London’s most travelled address. A chauffeur service earns its place here by knowing that context — which mornings the streets move, which corners take an MPV, and when to simply leave earlier.
Islington splits its loyalties: Luton up the A1, Stansted round the North Circular — door-to-door times are near-identical, so we book whichever flight is cheaper and route accordingly. In practical terms, Upper Street is a red route — cars collect on the side streets off it — the sort of detail a fixed fare quietly contains, so the number agreed at booking is the number on the receipt.
Islington means the Upper Street offices and the media firms on the Old Street fringe, and around it Upper Street, The Almeida Theatre, Camden Passage, Highbury Fields anchor the local map — our drivers’ mental one included. The nearest rail is King’s Cross Station, the tube is Angel and Highbury & Islington, and from N1 every London airport carries a fixed fare, tracked on the way back in.

What does a car from Islington to London City cost?
Fixed from £55 for a saloon — 7 miles, typically 20–30 min. Every other airport is priced the same transparent way, agreed before you book.
Do you cover all of Islington?
Yes — every street in N1 and the surrounding roads. Islington splits its loyalties: Luton up the A1, Stansted round the North Circular — door-to-door times are near-identical, so we book whichever flight is cheaper and route accordingly.
Are tolls and the Congestion Charge included?
Yes — every quoted fare includes road tolls and, where the route crosses the zones, the Congestion Charge and ULEZ. The agreed price is the complete price.
What happens on the return leg from the airport?
We track your flight and meet you in arrivals with a name board, with 60 minutes of waiting included — the car reaches your door without a single message sent.
How late can I book?
Same-day bookings are often possible — call 020 8742 2888 and we confirm live availability. For dawn airport runs, booking the evening before guarantees the slot.
Isn’t the Underground easier around Islington?
The tube here is Angel and Highbury & Islington, and for a single light trip it’s fine. With luggage, a group, an early flight or a client to impress, a car door-to-door usually wins — and Upper Street is a red route — cars collect on the side streets off it.
