Event & venue transfers
Around 14.1 miles door to door, 35 min when the roads are behaving. From £80, locked at booking, with no meter running and no surge applied.
A taxi from Fulham to ExCeL London is £80 in a saloon, £100 in a 6-seat MPV and £110 in an 8-seater. It is about 14.1 miles and 35 min off-peak, or 1h 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 £80 |
| MPV | up to 6 passengers, 4 large cases | from £100 |
| 8-seater | up to 7 passengers, 7 large cases | from £110 |
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 Fulham Broadway (the District line) across to Custom House (Elizabeth line and the DLR), then 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. Door to door by road is about 35 min, or 1h when the roads are full, with no changes, no stairs and no queue at the barrier. 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 SW6 streets the route runs via the A3220 then the A308 Fulham Road, finishing on A13 then Connaught Bridge and Western Gateway. Roughly 14.1 miles, and the timing swings with the hour rather than the route: 35 min clear, 1h loaded.
We cover the whole of Fulham - SW6 - including the streets where flagging something down is a matter of luck rather than timing.
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 is limited and the surrounding streets are metered or permit-only, so self-driving usually costs more in time than the fare saves. A drop-off and a booked return sidesteps it entirely.
Doors are usually an hour before the event. Working back, that means leaving Fulham around 1h 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.
£80 in a saloon, £100 in a 6-seat MPV and £110 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 35 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Fulham Broadway to Custom House plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
The Western or Eastern entrance taxi ranks on Western Gateway. 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.
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 £100 and an 8-seater £110. Bigger parties travel in several vehicles routed together.
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.
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.
