Pick-up in Cardiff, drop-off at Newmarket 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 Newmarket Racecourse we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for the Guineas and the July Festival when the roads around the venue are closed.
Allow 4.3-6.1 hrs for the 185-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.
Newmarket Racecourse to Cardiff: the journey home
Newmarket 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 the Guineas and the July Festival, 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.
Heading home, the direction of travel is west: Newmarket Racecourse first, Cardiff at the end.

Event days at Newmarket Racecourse
For the Guineas and the July Festival 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.
