Worth knowing

Good to know about Westminster Abbey.

Getting dropped off

The Broad Sanctuary forecourt allows brief set-down for pre-booked vehicles; otherwise Great Smith Street is the reliable kerb, ninety seconds away.

Worth knowing

The Abbey caps daily entries; morning slots plus an early hotel pickup mean you see the Lady Chapel before the tour groups mass.

No parking, by design

Central attractions have effectively no visitor parking. The chauffeur answer is simple: set down at the entrance, wait off-site, return on your message.

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.

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.
