Your driver collects you from the office, crosses the river and heads south towards the M23, so there is no walk to the platform, no ticket queue, and no shuffle between the North and South terminals.
Whether you’re setting off from Bank or Moorgate, catching a dawn departure from a Liverpool Street hotel, leaving a meeting near Fenchurch Street or Aldgate, or heading home after landing at Gatwick, our highly-rated service looks after solo business travellers, teams, and families alike — backed by hundreds of verified reviews.

London City to Gatwick: Distance, Drive Time & A23 Route
The City of London sits on the north bank of the Thames, so every Gatwick run begins by getting clear of the Square Mile and across the river. Your driver picks up the Embankment on the A3211 and the A2 approaches, crosses to the south side and heads down the A23 through the southern suburbs towards the M23, dropping onto the airport spur for the terminals; when the radials are heavy the A2 and M25 offer an alternative way round to the same motorway. Because the City’s streets are the slowest part, a driver who knows the Square Mile will time the exit around the worst of the rush and pick the river crossing that is actually moving, rather than joining the queue at the obvious one.

Gatwick Airport Taxi Routes Across the City of London
Gatwick is the workhorse airport for the City’s business travellers, and we run the same fixed-fare transfer from every part of the capital’s financial core. Just east in the Docklands, our Canary Wharf to Gatwick taxi serves the other great banking district with the identical door-to-door service, while a Central London to Gatwick taxi covers the West End and Westminster on the same transparent, fixed pricing.
Across the river and out to the suburbs we look after the wider capital too. A Wimbledon to Gatwick taxi picks up the southern approaches for the same easy transfer, and for connecting passengers our Heathrow to Gatwick taxi links the two airports directly, with meet-and-greet and flight tracking on every booking.
Wherever your journey begins in the City or the surrounding boroughs, every fare is fixed in advance and every driver is licensed and DBS-checked. Check your address against our full list of areas we serve.

London City to Gatwick Transfers for Every Kind of Trip
Corporate & Business Travel
The Square Mile runs on tight diaries, and a fixed-fare car is the way its professionals reach Gatwick without a cross-town rail change to time. There is no ticket to buy, no dragging a case through Victoria, and the fare is locked when you book, with a written confirmation that drops straight into an expense claim. For an early client flight the driver arrives ahead of the City’s morning rush so you reach check-in with a proper buffer.
Early Departures & Red-Eye Flights
Gatwick runs flights around the clock, and plenty of City trips start in the small hours or land late at night. Book the evening before and the driver is at your office or hotel door in good time for an early check-in; on a late arrival the flight is tracked, so your car is waiting whichever terminal you come into, however far behind schedule the aircraft is.
Groups & Delegations
For a team heading out from one of the City’s offices, or a delegation leaving from several addresses around Bank and Bishopsgate, the larger MPVs and minibuses carry the whole party with their luggage in one vehicle. One fixed price, one driver, and no splitting across separate tickets and a shuttle at the airport end.
Family Trips & City Residents
The City is home as well as workplace, from the Barbican towers to the flats around Aldgate and Blackfriars. Travelling with children and a boot full of cases is far simpler door to door: the driver loads the luggage, fits any child or booster seats you asked for at booking, and on the way home meets you inside the right arrivals hall with a name board so nobody is hunting for a pickup point after a long flight.

London City to Gatwick Airport Taxi – Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our London City to Gatwick taxi service including pricing, journey times, coverage areas, and what is included with every booking. Visit our FAQ page for more.
How much does a taxi from the City of London 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 through the City on the day.
How long does the London City to Gatwick journey take?
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. The slowest part is clearing the Square Mile and crossing the river; once your driver is south and onto the motorway the timing is dependable, so a sensible buffer is built in for the City streets and the airport approach.
What is the best route from the City to Gatwick?
The usual run leaves the City on the Embankment and the A2 approaches, crosses the river and heads south on the A23 to the M23 and the airport spur. When the southern radials are busy an experienced driver may take the A2 and M25 round to the same motorway instead to keep you moving.
Which terminal do you cover, North or South?
Both. Gatwick has a North Terminal and a South Terminal linked by a transit shuttle, and your driver takes you straight to whichever one your airline uses — just tell us the terminal and flight when you book. On the return we meet you inside the correct arrivals hall, so there is no crossing between terminals with your bags.
Do you pick up from Bank, Moorgate and Liverpool Street?
Yes. We collect from every corner of the Square Mile including Bank, Moorgate, Liverpool Street, Aldgate, the Barbican, Fenchurch Street and Cannon Street, as well as the City fringe around Farringdon, Blackfriars, Shoreditch and Clerkenwell.
Can I book the return, Gatwick to the City of London?
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.
What happens if my flight into Gatwick is delayed?
We monitor your flight number, so the driver knows the real landing time before setting off to meet you. There is no charge for waiting caused by a delayed flight, and your car will be there when you clear the arrivals hall rather than to the original schedule.
Can you collect for an early-morning flight or set up a corporate account?
Yes. The service runs around the clock, and pre-dawn departures are among the most common bookings from the City. Reserve the night before and the driver arrives in good time to reach the terminal with your check-in window comfortably covered; for firms with regular travel we can arrange account billing so every trip is invoiced in one place.
