Event & venue transfers
Around 8.3 miles door to door, 25 min when the roads are behaving. From £55, locked at booking, with no meter running and no surge applied.
A taxi from Dulwich to The Championships, Wimbledon is £55 in a saloon, £70 in a 6-seat MPV and £75 in an 8-seater. It is about 8.3 miles and 25 min off-peak, or 45 min in traffic. The fare is fixed at the moment you book and covers tolls, the driver's waiting time and your luggage.
| Vehicle | Capacity | Fixed fare |
|---|---|---|
| Saloon | up to 4 passengers, 2 large cases | from £55 |
| MPV | up to 6 passengers, 4 large cases | from £70 |
| 8-seater | up to 7 passengers, 7 large cases | from £75 |
Per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, congestion and crossing charges are already inside the price, and it does not change on the day.
On the network it is North Dulwich (Southern) to Southfields (the District line), plus a 15-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that Southfields is queue-managed throughout The Championships. The taxi is about 25 min, or 45 min when the roads are full, but it is one journey rather than three, and nobody stands up for any of it. Two people with hand luggage should take the train. Three or more, or anyone with a case, and the fixed fare splits better than the tickets do.
From the SE21, SE22 streets the route runs via the A205 then the A2199, finishing on A3 then A219 Parkside. That is about 8.3 miles. Reckon 25 min off-peak and 45 min if you are crossing town at the wrong moment.
Dulwich pickups take in all of SE21, SE22. Controlled parking zones and one-way systems are the driver's problem to solve, not yours.
Somerset Road or Burghley Road; Church Road itself is closed to traffic during The Championships. Church Road and Somerset Road operate a controlled zone through the fortnight, so drivers meet at the agreed gate rather than the main entrance. 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: All England Lawn Tennis Club, Church Road, SW19 5AE.
Parking at The Championships, Wimbledon is limited and the surrounding streets are metered or permit-only, so self-driving usually costs more in time than the fare saves. Being dropped at the door and collected at an agreed point removes the whole problem.
Doors are usually an hour before the day at the tennis. Working back, that means leaving Dulwich around 45 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.
£55 in a saloon, £70 in a 6-seat MPV and £75 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 25 min off-peak. The rail alternative is North Dulwich to Southfields plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
Somerset Road or Burghley Road; Church Road itself is closed to traffic during The Championships. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.
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.
No. The fare is fixed when you book. Traffic, tolls and the hour are our problem, not a line on your bill.
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.
A 6-seat MPV is £70 and an 8-seater £75. Bigger parties travel in several vehicles routed together.
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.
