Before you travel
Every road toll — and, where the route applies, the London Congestion Charge and ULEZ — is inside your price.
The Cardiff road runs about 1h 10–1h 35 from Swansea. Your driver reads the live traffic and, with the sailing tracked, times the pickup to your real arrival.
Heading back to Swansea later? Book the return and we time the Cardiff pickup to your sailing, at the same fixed fare.
Your chauffeur waits at the passenger terminal at Swansea with a name board and helps with the luggage before the direct run to Cardiff.
This is a journey decided before you arrive: whether the driver watched the sailing, whether the price moved, and whether anyone is standing at the passenger terminal at Swansea when you come off. On the Cardiff run we settle all three in advance — the sailing tracked, the fare from £95 fixed, and a named chauffeur waiting with a board.
Reckon on 1h 10–1h 35 for the drive, with 45 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.
