How it works
Door to door, one fixed price.
Cars cannot wait on the South Bank itself; your chauffeur sets down on Belvedere Road behind County Hall and collects at the same point on your call. At London City Airport, your driver waits in arrivals with a name board, flight tracked, 60 minutes of waiting included.
Set-down that fits the venue

Timed-entry reality
Most big sights now run timed tickets. We build the drop-off around your slot so the queue you join is for the door, not a taxi rank half a mile away.
At the The London Eye end
Cars cannot wait on the South Bank itself; your chauffeur sets down on Belvedere Road behind County Hall and collects at the same point on your call.
While you visit
Your chauffeur repositions rather than parks — when you message, the car is already moving towards the agreed point.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.
The The London Eye–London City transfer
A The London Eye–London City Airport transfer lives or dies on the two meeting points and the fixed price. Sunset rotations book out first and queue longest; a champagne fast-track slot plus a pre-booked car makes the whole evening seamless. Inbound, the flight is tracked and the The London Eye pickup moves to your real arrival; the fare from £55 is agreed before you travel, either direction.
Reckon on 20–30 min for the 8 miles, with 60 minutes of complimentary waiting and every toll, plus the London charges where they apply, inside the fare. Vehicles run from a saloon to a 8-seat van, so the same booking works for a couple or a whole party.
