Event & venue transfers
Around 16.4 miles door to door, 35 min when the roads are behaving. From £85, locked at booking, with no meter running and no surge applied.
A taxi from Harrow to Kempton Park Racecourse is £85 in a saloon, £105 in a 6-seat MPV and £120 in an 8-seater. It is about 16.4 miles and 35 min off-peak, or 55 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 £85 |
| MPV | up to 6 passengers, 4 large cases | from £105 |
| 8-seater | up to 7 passengers, 7 large cases | from £120 |
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 Harrow-on-the-Hill (the Metropolitan line and Chiltern Railways) and finishes at Kempton Park (National Rail), with a 5-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that the station opens for racedays only. Door to door by road is about 35 min, or 55 min 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 HA1, HA2, HA3, HA5, HA7 streets the route runs via the A404 then the A409 then the A312, finishing on M3 J1 or M25 J12, then A308 Staines Road East. That is about 16.4 miles. Reckon 35 min off-peak and 55 min if you are crossing town at the wrong moment.
Any address across Harrow works, HA1, HA2, HA3, HA5, HA7 included, at whatever hour the North West London traffic is doing its worst.
The main entrance on Staines Road East. Kempton's floodlit evening meetings finish late and the A308 clears quickly, so a booked return beats waiting for a rank. 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: Staines Road East, Sunbury-on-Thames, TW16 5AQ.
Driving yourself to Kempton Park Racecourse means joining the same single-file exit as everyone else, and the car parks empty in one slow wave rather than continuously. A drop-off and a booked return sidesteps it entirely.
Gates open well before the first race and the roads in are single-file near the course. Leaving Harrow about 55 min ahead of when you want to be through the turnstile is the timing that holds up.
£85 in a saloon, £105 in a 6-seat MPV and £120 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 Harrow-on-the-Hill to Kempton Park plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.

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