Via

Dover is a town shaped entirely by departures. The ferry port, the cruise terminal and the Channel Tunnel at Folkestone all run to timetables that do not wait, which makes a fixed pickup time worth rather more here than it is elsewhere.

We run fixed-fare Dover transfers around the clock, with the price agreed before you book and the Dartford Crossing already inside it.

Airport transfers from Dover

Gatwick is the usual airport from Dover and the M20 and M25 do most of the work. Heathrow is the longer run and the one worth leaving proper margin for, since it means crossing the bottom of London.

The cruise terminal and the ferry port

Dover Cruise Terminal at the Western Docks is a different job from the ferry port, and the two get confused more often than you would think. Tell us which you need when you book. For a cruise departure we set the pickup from your boarding window rather than the sailing time, because the terminal queues build sharply in the last hour.
For ferries at the Eastern Docks, check-in closes well before departure and the approach roads back up when a sailing is busy. We build that into the pickup rather than hoping. Coming the other way, give us the sailing and we will track it — a late ferry moves your pickup at no extra cost.

Pickups anywhere in Dover

We collect from the town centre hotels, the seafront and Marine Parade, and from the residential areas — Buckland, Tower Hamlets, River, Whitfield, Kearsney and out to St Margaret's at Cliffe and Capel-le-Ferne.
The Western Heights and the Castle side of town are steep and narrow in places. For a pickup up there with luggage, tell us and the driver will get as close to the door as the road allows rather than leaving you a climb.

Local journeys around Dover

Fixed-fare local work runs to Folkestone and the Channel Tunnel terminal, Deal, Sandwich, Canterbury, Ramsgate, Margate and Ashford International. Dover Castle, the White Cliffs visitor centre and Samphire Hoe are regular short runs.

Roads in and out of Dover

The A2 and the M2 head north-west towards Canterbury and London; the A20 and M20 run west along the coast to Folkestone, Ashford and the M25. Which one you take depends less on distance than on what is happening at the port — when freight backs up, the A20 approach is the one that suffers.
Journeys towards Essex and the eastern airports use the Dartford Crossing, and that charge is inside your fare. Operation Brock and freight management schemes appear on the M20 at busy periods; we plan around them rather than discovering them with your sailing in forty minutes.

What is included in the fare

One price per vehicle, quoted before you book from the real distance between your two postcodes. The Dartford Crossing, any tolls, airport and port entry charges, and the first hour of waiting after a flight lands are all inside it. No meter, no per-passenger pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Where a journey uses the crossing, the charge is inside the fare you are quoted rather than added afterwards.

Yes, at the Western Docks. Tell us your boarding window rather than the sailing time and we will set the pickup from that, since the terminal queues build in the final hour.

No, and they are easy to confuse. The cruise terminal is at the Western Docks and the ferries run from the Eastern Docks. Say which you need when you book.

Around 80 miles and usually an hour and three quarters via the M20 and M25. Heathrow is roughly 100 miles and two to two and a half hours.

Yes, the Eurotunnel terminal at Cheriton, on a fixed fare agreed up front.

Yes. Cruise passengers usually have more cases than a normal airport run, so tell us how many when you book and we will send an estate, MPV or eight-seater to suit.
