Taxi or train from Barnet?

The public-transport version starts at High Barnet (the Northern line) and finishes at Custom House (Elizabeth line and the DLR), with a 5-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that it is fine with one bag and awkward if you are carrying exhibition kit. A car does the whole thing door to door in about 40 min, or 1h 10m when the roads are full - and it does it with your bags in the boot. If you are travelling light and early, the train usually wins on price. If you are in a group, carrying anything, or leaving after an event, the car wins on everything else.

The route

Out of Barnet (EN4, EN5, N12, N20) the driver picks up the A1 then the A406, joining A13 then Connaught Bridge and Western Gateway for the run-in. That is about 21 miles. Reckon 40 min off-peak and 1h 10m if you are crossing town at the wrong moment.

Barnet pickups take in all of EN4, EN5, N12, N20. Controlled parking zones and one-way systems are the driver's problem to solve, not yours.

Where the driver waits at ExCeL London

The Western or Eastern entrance taxi ranks on Western Gateway. ExCeL is over a kilometre end to end, so it matters whether your hall is at the West or East entrance - tell us the hall number when booking. Your driver sends the exact standing point and the registration before they set off, so you are not circling a car park looking for a number plate.

Address: One Western Gateway, Royal Victoria Dock, E16 1XL.

Parking at ExCeL London

Parking at ExCeL London is limited and the surrounding streets are metered or permit-only, so self-driving usually costs more in time than the fare saves. Pre-booked both ways, none of that is your problem.

When to leave Barnet

Doors are usually an hour before the event. Working back, that means leaving Barnet around 1h 10m plus that hour on a busy night - and booking the return at the same time, because the road out is slower than the road in.

What the fare includes

Licensed private hire operator; drivers hold Enhanced DBS clearance
Driver name and registration texted before pickup
Luggage loaded and carried, with no per-bag extras
60 minutes' free waiting on airport pickups, with the flight tracked
Tolls, congestion and crossing charges already inside the quoted price

The Western or Eastern entrance taxi ranks on Western Gateway. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.

Is the price affected by traffic or the time of night?

No. The fare is fixed when you book. Traffic, tolls and the hour are our problem, not a line on your bill.

Do you carry groups from Barnet?

A 6-seat MPV is £90 and a V Class £189. Bigger parties travel in several vehicles routed together.

What if the event overruns?

The driver waits. We watch venue finish times rather than working to a fixed clock, so a late curtain does not leave you stranded or cost you extra.

Can I book the return from ExCeL London as well?

Yes, and it is the leg worth booking. The driver is in position before you come out instead of you joining the queue that forms the moment it ends.
