Worth knowing

Nearest Underground
Connections here are Charing Cross — the Bakerloo and Northern lines, with Embankment a moment away. Useful for a light, single hop; with cases or a tight onward schedule, the car door-to-door usually earns its place.
Traffic & timing

Payment & accounts
Pay by card online, by cash to your driver, or on a corporate account with consolidated invoicing. The price you agree is complete — tipping is appreciated, never expected.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is TfL-licensed private hire, fully insured and DBS-checked.
Off the train at Charing Cross, into a waiting car
London Charing Cross is served by southeastern · concourse pickup, and the walk from platform to street is where a long journey either ends well or falls apart. A pre-booked chauffeur means no taxi queue and no surge pricing at the barrier — your driver is on the concourse with a name board before the train arrives, tracking the service rather than the timetable.
The booking works the way it should. The fare is fixed when you book, with tolls and pickup fees inside it. Delays are absorbed automatically — we watch the train and move the pickup to match, with 45 minutes of complimentary waiting on top. Luggage is handled, child seats are free, and cancellation costs nothing up to 24 hours before pickup.
Transfers from Charing Cross start at £45 for a saloon; estates, executive cars, MPVs and sixteen-seat minibuses are priced the same transparent way. It is typically 10–40 min across london — door to door, one price, no meter running.
