Per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, congestion and crossing charges are already inside the price, and it does not change on the day.
By rail you would go East Croydon (Southern, Thameslink and the Gatwick Express) across to Selhurst (National Rail), then a 12-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that three stations serve the ground and none is close. Door to door by road is about 15 min, or 25 min when the roads are full, with no changes, no stairs and no queue at the barrier. It is a fair fight on the way there. On the way back, when several thousand people want the same platform, it stops being one.
The usual line from Croydon is the A23 then the A232 then the A212, then A213 Whitehorse Lane, off the A215 at the end. That is about 3.4 miles. Reckon 15 min off-peak and 25 min if you are crossing town at the wrong moment.
Any address across Croydon works, CR0, CR2, CR3, CR4, CR5, CR7, CR8, SE19, SE25 included, at whatever hour the South London traffic is doing its worst.
Whitehorse Lane or Park Road, clear of the Holmesdale Road closure. The streets around Selhurst are narrow and go one-way on matchdays, so the meeting point sits on Whitehorse Lane. 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: Holmesdale Road, South Norwood, SE25 6PU.
If you were thinking of driving yourself: Selhurst Park sits inside a matchday or event-day controlled parking zone, on-site spaces are pre-book only and go early, and the residential streets around it are permit-holders only with active enforcement. A drop-off and a booked return sidesteps it entirely.
Doors are usually an hour before the match. Working back, that means leaving Croydon around 25 min 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.
£35 in a saloon, £45 in a 6-seat MPV and £50 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 15 min off-peak. The rail alternative is East Croydon to Selhurst plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
Whitehorse Lane or Park Road, clear of the Holmesdale Road closure. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.

No. The fare is fixed when you book. Traffic, tolls and the hour are our problem, not a line on your bill.
Card, bank transfer or a business account, before or after the journey. A VAT receipt is issued either way.
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.
Fares are fixed at booking and shown per vehicle. Distances and journey times are approximate and vary with traffic and the exact pickup address. Page reviewed 25 September 2026.
