What's included
- Fixed price, in writing. The meter never runs; no airport surcharge or card fee.
- Meet & greet. Your driver waits in arrivals with a name board.
- Free waiting on the return. We track your inbound flight, so a delay just moves your pickup — no extra charge.
- Licensed, DBS-checked drivers, 24/7. Including the earliest departures.
The journey & pickup
It's about 35 miles — A25 → A23 → Gatwick — typically around 40 Minutes. Traffic near the airport can add time at peak, so for an early flight we'll suggest a pickup that clears the worst of it; for arrivals we hold the car until you're through the hall.
We collect across Guildford and nearby — Guildford Town Centre, Onslow Village, Burpham, Merrow, Stoughton and the surrounding GU postcodes. We serve both the North and South terminals; give us your terminal and flight number when you book and the driver takes you to the right door.
Taxi vs train vs coach
| Option | Time | Changes | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Taxi (door to door) | ~40 Minutes | none | from £97 / car |
| Train | around an hour door to door once you add the stations either end | no change, but tied to the timetable | £9-20pp depending on the ticket |
| Coach | two to three hours with a change | 1+ | £15-25pp |
The taxi fare is per car. For two or more travellers — or any early-morning or late-night flight — a fixed car usually beats multiple legs with luggage.
How booking works
Guildford to Gatwick FAQ
How much does a taxi from Guildford to Gatwick cost?
Your fare is fixed and shown in the price table above, starting with the saloon and rising by vehicle size. It is an all-in figure with no surge pricing, so the number you see when you book is the number you pay, whatever the traffic on the day.
How long does the Guildford to Gatwick journey take?
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. The route runs east on the A25 through Dorking and Reigate before the A23 and M23 approach, so outside the morning rush the timing is dependable; your driver builds in a sensible buffer for the stretch around Reigate and Redhill.
What is the best route from Guildford to Gatwick?
The standard run is the A25 east through Dorking and Reigate, then the A23 and M23 south to the airport spur. When the eastern approach is congested around Redhill, an experienced driver may adjust through the Surrey lanes to keep you moving.
Which Gatwick terminal do you cover, North or South?
Both. Gatwick has just two terminals, North and South, linked by a free shuttle. Tell us which one your airline uses when you book and your driver drops you right outside it; on the return we meet you inside the correct arrivals hall with a name board.
Do you pick up from Onslow Village, Burpham and Merrow?
Yes. We collect from every Guildford neighbourhood including Onslow Village, Burpham, Merrow, Stoughton, Shalford and Worplesdon, as well as the wider GU postcodes such as Godalming, Cranleigh and Ripley.
Can I book the return, Gatwick to Guildford?
Yes, the same fixed fare applies in both directions. For the return leg the driver tracks your inbound flight, so if you land early or late the pickup adjusts automatically and you are met in arrivals with no extra waiting charge for normal delays.
