How it works

Door to door, one fixed price.

Trafalgar Square’s north side is closed to cars; set-down on Pall Mall East by the Sainsbury Wing is the practised move. At Heathrow Airport, your driver waits in arrivals with a name board, flight tracked, 60 minutes of waiting included.

01

Both directions, one price

The National Gallery to Heathrow Airport or the reverse — the fixed fare from £65 holds either way.

02

Culture without logistics

Timed exhibitions, cloakroom queues and closing bells — the car absorbs all of it so the art gets your attention.

03

Every charge inside

Tolls, the Congestion Charge and ULEZ are all in the quoted fare.

04

Venue craft included

Friday lates run to 9pm and the rooms empty beautifully after 7 — an evening visit with a waiting car is the connoisseur’s version.

Local knowledge

Good to know about The National Gallery to Heathrow.

Timing

The 17-mile run typically takes 45 min–1h. Your driver watches live traffic and, inbound, times the pickup to your actual flight.

Exhibition-day timing

Blockbuster shows sell timed slots. Match the pickup to yours and the spare minutes go to the permanent collection, not the foyer.

Licensed, insured, vetted

Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.

Worth knowing

Friday lates run to 9pm and the rooms empty beautifully after 7 — an evening visit with a waiting car is the connoisseur’s version.

The National Gallery to Heathrow Airport, planned properly

This route joins a venue and a transport hub, and both ends have their own rules. Trafalgar Square’s north side is closed to cars; set-down on Pall Mall East by the Sainsbury Wing is the practised move. At Heathrow Airport, your driver meets you in arrivals with the flight tracked — so the 17-mile run between them is the easy part.

Reckon on 45 min–1h for the 17 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.

questions.

Anything else — call us any time on 020 8742 2888.

What does the The National Gallery–Heathrow Airport car cost?

From £65 for a saloon, agreed before you book — the same fare applies in reverse, and larger vehicles are priced up front too.

Where are we met at The National Gallery?

Trafalgar Square’s north side is closed to cars; set-down on Pall Mall East by the Sainsbury Wing is the practised move.

Where will the driver be at Heathrow Airport?

In the arrivals hall with a name board, with 60 minutes of waiting included. The exact point is confirmed with your booking.

Does the price change on event days?

No. The fare is fixed when you book — event-day traffic, closures and staging are our problem to plan around, not a surcharge.

Can I book the return to The National Gallery?

Yes — returns are welcome and often discounted, with the pickup point agreed before you go in and adjusted live if the day runs long.

Can you take a group?

Yes — executive MPVs seat up to seven and vans up to 8, priced up front. Groups sharing one vehicle usually beat separate app cars comfortably.

“Always had great conversations with the drivers during the multiple trips I had with P5. I strongly recommend.”
