Driving Penzance to St Ives

Most of what goes wrong on a transfer goes wrong at the two ends — the meet and the price. From Penzance to St Ives we take both off the table: your driver is at the passenger terminal with your name, the luggage is theirs to carry, and the 15–25 min run is at a figure agreed when you book, not one that drifts with the traffic.

Reckon on 15–25 min for the drive, with 15 minutes of complimentary waiting so a slow disembarkation never costs you the car. Every toll sits inside the fare — nothing to settle at the kerb.
