Dover Port to Central London: what to expect

Most of what goes wrong on a transfer goes wrong at the two ends — the meet and the price. From Dover Port to Central London we take both off the table: your driver is at the passenger terminal with your name, the luggage is theirs to carry, and the 2h 20–3h 15 run is at a figure agreed when you book, not one that drifts with the traffic.

Cruise porters take the cases at the terminal; ferry foot-passenger luggage is self-carried. Reckon on 2h 20–3h 15 for the drive, with 15 minutes of complimentary waiting so a slow disembarkation never costs you the car. Every toll, and the London charges where they apply, sits inside the fare — nothing to settle at the kerb.
