THE ROUTE
A cathedral city, on the way to the coast.
Guildford is a historic cathedral city in West Sussex, with a compact centre built around its medieval cathedral and Roman-era street plan. The drive from Chichester heads south towards the coast, typically 50 to 70 minutes depending on traffic.
The short answer: a taxi from Chichester to Guildford typically costs from around £107, with a journey of 50 to 70 minutes depending on traffic.
FESTIVAL THEATRE
A pickup timed to when the show lets out.
Guildford Festival Theatre draws audiences from well beyond Sussex, and a good number of our bookings here are built around a performance rather than a fixed clock time.
Give us your performance time, we'll handle the rest
Tell us your show time when booking and we'll arrange a return pickup timed to when the performance lets out, rather than you trying to book a car from outside the theatre with everyone else at once.
HOW PRICING WORKS
One fare, agreed before you travel.
The fare is set by distance and vehicle type, confirmed before you travel, and doesn't move for traffic or time of day, including evening theatre trips.
A couple attending a Festival Theatre evening performance would typically confirm a saloon at a fixed fare from £107 outbound, with the return leg booked to a specific post-show pickup time — no need to arrange transport once the performance ends.
