How it works
Dropped at the gate, collected after.
Set-down runs on Horse Guards Avenue beside the building — Whitehall itself moves too fast for a considered arrival.
Timed to your tickets
State rooms and castle tours run on timed entry — we plan the drop-off to your slot, with security margins included.
Return staged, not hoped for
The pickup point and time are agreed before you go in — and adjusted live if the day runs long.
One car, any party size
A couple in a saloon or 8 in a van — the same booking, the same fixed price per journey.
Cars & capacity
Banqueting House from £47.
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 Banqueting House.
Getting dropped off
Set-down runs on Horse Guards Avenue beside the building — Whitehall itself moves too fast for a considered arrival.
Worth knowing
The Banqueting House closes for state functions at short notice — we verify opening with the palace diary the day before.
Combining visits
Palaces pair naturally with the towns around them — many clients add lunch or a second sight and keep the car across the day.
Timed state-room entry
Guided and timed tours mean the drop-off matters. We plan it to your slot with a security margin built in.
A day, not a dash
Palaces and castles reward a whole day — state rooms, gardens, lunch in the town. Hourly hire keeps the car between all of it at one fixed price.
Getting to Banqueting House, and away again
A chauffeur to the Banqueting House — Rubens’ ceiling on Whitehall, the last surviving piece of Whitehall Palace. The pattern is the one P5 applies everywhere: a fixed fare agreed before you travel, a driver briefed on this venue specifically, and a return that is planned rather than improvised at the kerb.
Set-down runs on Horse Guards Avenue beside the building — Whitehall itself moves too fast for a considered arrival. The Banqueting House closes for state functions at short notice — we verify opening with the palace diary the day before.
From Heathrow Airport, allow 45 min–1h on a typical day — your driver plans around live traffic and the venue’s own calendar. Vehicles run from an everyday saloon to a 8-seat van, so the same booking works for a couple or a whole party.

From £65 for a saloon from Heathrow Airport — fixed when you book, with every toll and charge inside the price. Any other pickup point is quoted the same way, up front.
Where will the car drop us at Banqueting House?
Set-down runs on Horse Guards Avenue beside the building — Whitehall itself moves too fast for a considered arrival.
Is the return journey guaranteed?
Yes. The pickup point and time are agreed in advance, the driver tracks the day as it actually unfolds, and waiting on event and appointment bookings is deliberately flexible.
Can you take a group?
Yes — executive MPVs seat up to seven and vans up to 8, all priced up front. Groups sharing one vehicle usually pay less per head than separate app cars.
How far ahead should we book?
For ordinary days, 24 hours is comfortable. For major dates at Banqueting House — finals, festivals, opening weekends — book as soon as you hold tickets; those days sell our fleet out too.
