Pick-up in Cardiff, drop-off at Ascot Racecourse
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Cardiff or the Cardiff towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At Ascot Racecourse we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for Royal Ascot and race days when the roads around the venue are closed.
Allow 3.0-4.2 hrs for the 124-mile drive, more on the day of a big fixture. For a fixed start time we build in a buffer and confirm the pick-up time with you.
Ascot Racecourse to Cardiff: the journey home
Ascot Racecourse to Cardiff is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Book both legs together and the driver waits at the agreed meeting point at the end of Royal Ascot and race days, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Cardiff. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
On the way back you are travelling west, from Ascot Racecourse towards Cardiff.
What does a taxi from Ascot Racecourse to Cardiff cost?
A saloon from Ascot Racecourse to Cardiff is a fixed £300, the same as the Cardiff to Ascot Racecourse fare, for about 124 miles. Booked together, both legs cost £540.
Event days at Ascot Racecourse
For Royal Ascot and race days we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from Cardiff for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
