Via

Greenwich sits on the south bank inside the loop of the river, which makes it closer to London City Airport than its postcode suggests and further from Heathrow than the mileage implies. The tunnels under the Thames decide almost every journey from here.

We run fixed-fare transfers to and from Greenwich around the clock. The fare is agreed before you book, your flight is tracked, and the tunnel tolls and emission zone are already inside it.

Why choose Minicabees for Greenwich transfers?

The tunnels are the whole story. Blackwall queues, Silvertown is tolled, and the Rotherhithe route is narrow — a driver who guesses wrong costs you twenty minutes. A fixed fare means the guess is ours to get right.

Blackwall and Silvertown tunnel tolls and the Ultra Low Emission Zone included in the price

Flights tracked automatically, so delays and early landings move the pickup at no extra charge

Twenty-four hour booking, and a real phone number when plans change

Taxi from Greenwich route details

North across the river there are three options and they behave very differently. The Blackwall Tunnel is the shortest and the most congested; the Silvertown Tunnel alongside it is newer, tolled and usually quicker; the Rotherhithe Tunnel is narrower with vehicle restrictions. For London City the crossing takes you almost to the terminal — twenty to thirty minutes door to door in most conditions.
South and east is easier. The A2 runs out towards the M25 and Kent, which makes Gatwick about the hour and Dover an ordinary drive. Heathrow is the difficult one: whichever route you take it crosses the whole of London, and an hour and three quarters in the afternoon is realistic rather than pessimistic.
Locally, the streets around the town centre, the Cutty Sark and the park are busy with visitors most weekends, and the one-way system around Greenwich Church Street is slow. The exact address helps.

O2, university and residential pickups

The O2 at North Greenwich generates a great deal of late-night work, and the roads around it empty in a rush after an event. For those we set a meeting point away from the main exits and a realistic time. We also collect from the University of Greenwich and the Old Royal Naval College, the hotels around the peninsula, and the residential streets up in Blackheath and Westcombe Park.

Flight monitoring on every Greenwich airport taxi

Give us the flight number and we watch it. Land early and the car is already there; get delayed and the pickup moves, with nothing extra to pay for the wait. The first hour after landing is included as standard.

Whichever is quickest on the day. Blackwall is shortest but congested, Silvertown is tolled and usually faster, and Rotherhithe is narrower with vehicle restrictions. The toll is inside your fare either way.
