Why pre-book vs train?

South Western Railway London-Southampton is ~75 minutes platform-to-platform. Pre-booked taxi is door-to-cruise-terminal — no luggage transfer at Waterloo, no taxi at the other end. For cruise passengers with full luggage (typically 2–4 cases per person), pre-booked taxi is dramatically less stressful.

Vehicle options

  • Saloon — 4 passengers, 4 cases
  • Estate — 4 passengers, 6 cases
  • Executive Mercedes E-Class
