Worth knowing
Good to know about Sky Garden.
Getting dropped off
The entrance is on Philpot Lane; cars stop on Fenchurch Street directly opposite, though evening pickups shift to Eastcheap when the City empties.
Worth knowing
Tickets are free but released weekly and vanish; the restaurants book separately and skip the general queue — worth knowing for a proposal.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.
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.
While you visit
Your chauffeur repositions rather than parks — when you message, the car is already moving towards the agreed point.
Sky Garden, without the transport question
Chauffeur transfers to the Sky Garden — the free garden atop the Walkie-Talkie, with a car on Fenchurch Street when you descend. 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.
The entrance is on Philpot Lane; cars stop on Fenchurch Street directly opposite, though evening pickups shift to Eastcheap when the City empties. Tickets are free but released weekly and vanish; the restaurants book separately and skip the general queue — worth knowing for a proposal.
From London City Airport, allow 15–25 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 8-seat van, so the same booking works for a couple or a whole party.
