Travelling from Oxford to Gatwick

Gatwick to Oxford Transfers

If you need to travel from Gatwick to Oxford (or from Oxford to Gatwick), you have at least three options to choose from.  Your options may include a taxi, a bus, driving yourself, or having a friend or family member pick you up after you’ve arrived at Gatwick.  There are a lot of taxi providers who would be happy to take you to Oxford from Gatwick. There are also city buses that can take you back and forth between Gatwick and Oxford (or vice versa) as well as private buses and mini-buses that can do the same.

Transfer from Oxford

If you’re travelling from Oxford to Gatwick, your fastest option will probably be either catching a ride from a friend or family member or calling a cab.  The cab option will probably be the most expensive option, as most taxicab companies will charge 98-145 GBP each way. These prices do usually include 1 to 4 passengers with luggage (carry-on as well as luggage that will be checked in at Gatwick). 

While having a friend or family member give you a ride to Gatwick to Oxford may be cheaper than the taxicab fare, please remember that taxicabs are usually allowed to park at the airport terminal for much longer than your friend or family member will be allowed to. Your friend or family member will probably have to drop you off in front of the terminal and leave immediately (in fact, no waiting is allowed at Gatwick’s forecourts and they suggest using the short stay parking lots when picking up and dropping off passengers).

You can also drive your own vehicle from Oxford to Gatwick. You would then need to park in the long-term parking lots at Gatwick, and parking in these lots will cost you 13 GBP per day (any partial days will be charged at the full rate).

Taxi to Oxford

If you need to take a taxi to Oxford from Gatwick, the prices will range from 98.00 GBP each way depending on the taxi firm that you engage for the trip. The prices are generally per car and not per person, so the cost can be split if you are not travelling alone.  Also, if you pre-book a taxicab through a firm (such as www.eatransfer.com ) that offers that capability, it will probably be less expensive than hiring a taxi directly from the airport cab-stands.  Also, when pre-booking you can often pay using a credit card (when you hire a taxi directly from the airport cab-stand you may be limited to paying with cash only).

Travel from Heathrow to London

 Heathrow to London Transfers

If you need to travel from Heathrow to London or vice versa you will have at least 5 options on most travelling days.  These options include rail (trains), buses, taxicabs, driving yourself (if you are returning to Heathrow and you’ve parked in the long term parking there), or getting a ride from a friend or family member.  There are a lot of taxicab firms that you can either pre-book or hire directly from the cab-stand at Heathrow; as well, there are private mini-buses, private full size buses, and city buses that can transport you from Heathrow toLondon.

London Airport Transfers

If you are travelling from London to Heathrow, your fastest and most convenient option will probably be to hire a taxicab (this option, however, will not be the cheapest available option). If you pre-book a taxicab or private car to take you from London to Heathrow, it will probably be less expensive than simply hailing a cab or hiring one from a cab-stand.

If you drive your own vehicle to Heathrow and park in the long-term parking lots there, it will cost you 17.90 GBP per day (for one to four days) or 17.20 GBP per day for stays of five days or more. Parking in long-term parking at Heathrow will cost more during peak periods; one to four days will cost 20.60 GBP per day and five days or more will cost 19.80 GBP per day.

You can also take the London Underground train to Heathrow; this will be the cheapest option but it can be difficult negotiating the escalators and steps, particularly if you’re carrying luggage. In addition, the carriages are often crowded in London.  Another option is the National Express Coach; this bus system costs slightly more than the train but it is a luxury coach complete with a bathroom. Another option is an ‘aboveground’ train called the Heathrow Connect Train that shuttles between London’s Paddington Station and Heathrow. This train is faster than the London Underground train, taking only 25 minutes between the stops at Paddington andHeathrow.  There is also an express version of the aboveground train known as the Heathrow Express Train; this train runs non-stop between Paddington and Heathrow, taking only 15 minutes each way.

Taxi to Heathrow

A taxicab from London to Heathrow will cost you anywhere from 70 to 75 GBP each way. The exact fare that you will end up paying depends on where in London you are departing from, and how heavy traffic is along the route the taxicab driver chooses. Again, it will be cheaper and more convenient to pre-book a cab than to simply hail one in the street or hire one from a cab-stand.

Oxford to London Transfers

Oxford to London Transfers

If you are traveling from Oxford to London, there are several options for your journey.  You can drive yourself, you can catch a ride from a friend or family member, you can hire a private car, you can hire a taxicab, you can catch a bus, or you can catch a train.

The most convenient option is probably going to be hiring a taxicab or a private car. This won’t be the cheapest option, but if you pre-book your taxicab or private car rather than hiring it from a cab-stand it will probably be less expensive.  Using this option also means that you won’t have to look for parking in London once you arrive as you would need to do if you choose to drive your own vehicle.

The bus service between Oxford and London runs up to every 10 minutes, 24 hours per day. This is a very cheap way of travelling between Oxford and London, with pre-booked fares being as low as 8.00 GBP each way (in addition to pre-booking in advance, you will need to travel during off peak periods after 9 am daily). There are more upscale options as well, including the X90 (previously known as the Oxford Express).  The X90 runs every 15 minutes at peak times, and costs 13 GBP one way (16 GBP round trip) for an adult.

If you’d rather take a train, trains from Oxford to London depart from Paddington Station (in London) from 6 am to midnight on weekdays. 

Transfer in London

If you’re not used to London traffic, the best way to get around is to use the bus, the tube (or underground), or walk.  The bus service in London runs quite often—some buses even run 24 hours per day--and is relatively inexpensive as well. If you have a prepaid Oyster card, the fare will be from1.35 GBP; if you are paying cash, the fare will be from 2.30 GBP.  You can also use a travelcard when boarding all London buses.

London to Oxford Taxi

The approximate fare for a one way trip from London to Oxford will be from little as 80.00 GBP. This is a per car fee, not a per person fee, so if you are travelling with more than one person in your party the fare can be split between all members of the party.  In addition, some London taxis accept credit cards although there may be a surcharge of 10% to 15% over the metered price. Tipping is not necessary, but most taxi drivers do expect a tip of around 10%.

 we don't charge any of this !!!!

Airport Transfer to Cambridge

 Airport Transfer to Cambridge

If you need to travel from Luton Airport, Gatwick Airport, or Heathrow Airport to Cambridge, you have a lot of widely disparate options for your airport transfer to Cambridge. These options can include hiring a private car with driver, hiring a taxicab, driving yourself, having a friend or family member drive you, or catching one of four different types of public transport (buses, coaches, trains, or tubes).  Your choice will probably be dependent upon whether or not the speed of arrival in Cambridge is important to you, as well as how much money you wish to spend on the journey.

The most convenient and easiest method of travel from Luton, Gatwick, or Heathrow to Cambridge is probably going to be a taxicab.  Although this method of travel will be one of the most expensive options, a taxicab driver can usually pick you up at Point A (the airport) and travel directly to Point B (Cambridge) without having to stop for other passengers like a bus, train, tube or coach usually does.  In addition, a taxicab driver will probably be willing to assist you with your luggage; on most public transport, you are responsible for your own luggage and this may be problematical if you have a lot of steps, stairs, or escalators to navigate.

Transfer to Cambridge

 Your transfer to Cambridge can be by private car, public transport, a friend or family member driving you, or you driving yourself (if you've parked your personal vehicle in either the short stay or long stay parking lots at Luton, Gatwick, or Heathrow).  All of these methods of transport have specific advantages and disadvantages; for example, a taxi will probably be more convenient for you but it will also be more expensive.  Public transport will be less expensive but may not travel to exactly the stop you need or want.  Driving yourself will be the least expensive upfront option but there’s still the cost of gasoline, maintenance, wear and tear on your vehicle, and the possibility of burglary of your vehicle while it’s sitting in a long or short stay parking lot. 

London to Cambridge

You can travel from London to Cambridge using several different methods of transportation, including taxicabs, buses, trains, tubes, coaches, your personal vehicle, or the vehicle of a friend or family member.  Each method of transportation has pluses and minuses. For example, if a friend or family member takes you to Cambridge it will probably be a free or very inexpensive trip; on the other hand, they probably aren’t going to allowed to park in places that a cab, bus, or coach might be allowed to.
