Local knowledge
Good to know about The Science Museum.
Getting dropped off
Exhibition Road is a shared-surface street; cars pause directly outside the entrance, and the same kerb serves the V&A and NHM.
Worth knowing
Wonderlab tickets are the one thing worth pre-booking for children; the rest of the museum is free and blissfully unticketed.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.
Exhibition days
Blockbuster shows run timed tickets; match the pickup to your slot and spend the spare minutes in the permanent rooms, not the foyer.
Cloakroom and closing bells
Bag rules and closing times catch visitors out; the car absorbs both — nothing to carry, no dash for the last train.
Getting to The Science Museum, and away again
Chauffeur transfers to the Science Museum — from Stephenson’s Rocket to the Red Arrows simulator, set down on Exhibition Road. 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.
Exhibition Road is a shared-surface street; cars pause directly outside the entrance, and the same kerb serves the V&A and NHM. Wonderlab tickets are the one thing worth pre-booking for children; the rest of the museum is free and blissfully unticketed.
From Heathrow Airport, allow 35–50 min on a typical day — your driver plans around live traffic and the venue’s own calendar. Vehicles run from an everyday saloon to a sixteen-seat minibus, so the same booking works for a couple or a whole party.

How much is a chauffeur to The Science Museum?
From £55 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 The Science Museum?
Exhibition Road is a shared-surface street; cars pause directly outside the entrance, and the same kerb serves the V&A and NHM.
How far ahead should we book?
For ordinary days, 24 hours is comfortable. For major dates at The Science Museum — finals, festivals, opening weekends — book as soon as you hold tickets; those days sell our fleet out too.
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.
Is there parking at The Science Museum?
Effectively none — which is the case for a chauffeur. We set down at the entrance, wait off-site, and return the moment you message.
Can you take a group?
Yes — executive MPVs seat up to seven and minibuses up to sixteen, all priced up front. Groups sharing one vehicle usually pay less per head than separate app cars.
