Which vehicle for Dover to Villa Park?
Most passengers on this route book a saloon; families and groups with luggage take the 7-seater MPV taxi; for business travel the executive chauffeur car (Mercedes E-Class, from £563) or a Mercedes S-Class chauffeur on request; for seven or eight passengers an 8-seater taxi (from £760) or 9-seater minibus (from £799).

Pick-up in Dover, drop-off at Villa Park
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Dover or the Kent towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At Villa Park we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for Aston Villa match days when the roads around the venue are closed.
At 192 miles this is a 4.5-6.3 hrs drive in normal conditions. Event-day queues are the driver’s problem, not yours: the fare is fixed either way.
Villa Park to Dover: the journey home
Villa Park to Dover 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 Aston Villa match days, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Dover. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
Collection for the trip to Dover can be from any address in Villa Park, or from Witton (West Midlands) station, about 0.3 miles away, if you are coming off a train.
On the way back you are travelling south-east, from Villa Park towards Dover.
How much is a taxi from Villa Park to Dover?
A saloon from Villa Park to Dover is a fixed £467, the same as the Dover to Villa Park fare, for about 192 miles. Booked together, both legs cost £841.
Event days at Villa Park
For Aston Villa match 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 Dover 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.
