Event & venue transfers
Around 2.8 miles door to door, 10 min when the roads are behaving. From £30, locked at booking, with no meter running and no surge applied.
A taxi from Green Park to Royal Albert Hall is £30 in a saloon, £40 in a 6-seat MPV and £45 in an 8-seater. It is about 2.8 miles and 10 min off-peak, or 20 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 £30 |
| MPV | up to 6 passengers, 4 large cases | from £40 |
| 8-seater | up to 7 passengers, 7 large cases | from £45 |
Per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, congestion and crossing charges are already inside the price, and it does not change on the day.
The public-transport version starts at Green Park (Jubilee, Piccadilly and Victoria) and finishes at South Kensington (District, Circle and Piccadilly), with a 12-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that it is a pleasant walk in daylight and much less so leaving late. Door to door by road is about 10 min, or 20 min when the roads are full, with no changes, no stairs and no queue at the barrier. 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 usual line from Green Park is the A4 then the A302, then A4 Cromwell Road, then Exhibition Road at the end. About 2.8 miles in all - 10 min when it flows, 20 min when it does not.
Pickups in Green Park land inside the Congestion Charge zone, which is already in the price - and on W1J, SW1A the driver will name a legal stopping point rather than idle on a red route.
Prince Consort Road, behind the Hall - Kensington Gore is red route with no waiting. Kensington Gore is a red route where a car cannot legally wait, so the pickup is always around the back on Prince Consort Road. 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: Kensington Gore, South Kensington, SW7 2AP.
Parking at Royal Albert Hall 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 concert. Working back, that means leaving Green Park around 20 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.
£30 in a saloon, £40 in a 6-seat MPV and £45 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 10 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Green Park to South Kensington plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
Prince Consort Road, behind the Hall - Kensington Gore is red route with no waiting. 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.
Card, bank transfer or a business account, before or after the journey. A VAT receipt is issued either way.
A 6-seat MPV is £40 and an 8-seater £45. Bigger parties travel in several vehicles routed together.
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 7 September 2026.
