London to your ship — every England cruise port, one fixed fare.
Door-to-terminal private transfers between anywhere in London and every UK cruise port: Southampton, Dover, Tilbury, Harwich, Portsmouth, Liverpool and beyond. Flight-tracked fly-cruise runs, return pickups timed to your ship, and room for every suitcase.
✓ Door-to-terminal drop-off ✓ Fly-cruise from any airport ✓ Return tracked to your ship ✓ Fixed fares · 24/7A cruise should begin the moment you leave home — not in a scramble for a taxi big enough for the luggage, or a metered fare that climbs with embarkation-day traffic. RushXO runs fixed-fare private transfers between every address in London and every cruise port in England, so the journey to the quayside is as relaxed as the voyage itself.
From the giant Southampton terminals to Dover beneath the White Cliffs, the London Cruise Terminal at Tilbury, and the no-fly departure ports at Harwich, Portsmouth, Liverpool, Newcastle and beyond — we drop you right at your ship's check-in, lift the cases in, and have the fare agreed in pounds before you set off. Sailing the same day you land? Our fly-cruise transfers meet your flight at Heathrow or Gatwick and drive you straight to the port.
Why cruisers pre-book their port transfer
Embarkation day has a tight window and a lot of luggage. A booked transfer removes the guesswork.
Door-to-terminal
We drop you right at your ship's check-in terminal — Mayflower, Ocean, Dover CT1, wherever you sail from. No shuttle hunt.
Built for cruise luggage
Big suitcases, multiples per person, no problem. Pick an MPV or 9-seater and everything travels with you.
Return tracked to your ship
Booking a pickup after disembarkation? We track your ship's arrival, so a late docking never leaves you stranded.

Cruise transfer FAQs
Will you drop me at the right cruise terminal?
Yes. Tell us your cruise line and ship at booking and we'll take you straight to the correct check-in terminal — for example Mayflower or Ocean at Southampton, or Cruise Terminal 1 or 2 at Dover.
Can you collect me after my cruise?
Yes. Book a return pickup for your disembarkation date and your driver meets you at the terminal. We track the ship's arrival so an early or late docking is covered automatically.
How much luggage can I bring?
As much as a cruise needs. Choose the right vehicle at booking — a saloon suits a couple with two cases, while an MPV or 9-seater handles families and multiple large suitcases comfortably.
Can you do a fly-cruise transfer from the airport to the port?
Absolutely — airport-to-port is one of our most-booked routes. We track your inbound flight, meet you in arrivals and drive you directly to Southampton, Dover or any UK cruise port.
How far is Southampton from central London?
Around 80 miles, usually 90 minutes to two hours by car depending on traffic. We recommend booking a pickup that gets you to the terminal in good time for check-in.
Is the fare fixed for cruise transfers?
Yes. Every transfer is a fixed price quoted in GBP before you pay — no meter and no embarkation-day surge, no matter how busy the port is.
Can a large group travel together?
Yes. Our 8 and 9-seater vehicles keep groups and their luggage in one vehicle, and we can arrange multiple cars for larger parties.
Can you make more than one pickup or stop?
Yes — we can collect from several London addresses or add a stop on the way to the port. Add the details at booking and we'll fix one combined fare.
Which cruise ports do you cover?
Every major England cruise port — Southampton, Dover, Tilbury (London Cruise Terminal), Harwich, Portsmouth, Liverpool, Newcastle, Bristol/Avonmouth, Falmouth and Hull — to and from anywhere in London.
How early should I book?
As soon as your cruise is confirmed. Booking ahead locks your fixed fare and guarantees a vehicle on busy embarkation days, especially summer weekends from Southampton.
Arriving from abroad for your cruise?
We meet international travellers at the airport and run them straight to the port. Pick your starting point:
