GUILDFORD TO GATWICK
Often the quickest of the five airports.
Gatwick sits roughly 28 miles from Guildford, usually reached via the A217 or A23, in 45 to 60 minutes. Early-morning departures rarely hit traffic, which often makes this the fastest airport run on unsociable hours — and it's consistently one of our best-performing routes.
The short answer: a taxi from Guildford to Gatwick typically costs from around £50, with a journey of 45 to 60 minutes. Both terminals are covered, flight tracking is included, and the return leg — Gatwick to Guildford — is priced and booked exactly the same way.
NORTH & SOUTH TERMINAL
Both covered, confirm which one you need.
Gatwick's North and South terminals are a short shuttle ride apart, not walking distance, so a wrong-terminal drop-off costs real time — worth getting right upfront.
North Terminal
Confirm which terminal your airline uses when booking, or give us your flight number and we'll match it for you.
South Terminal
Connects directly to the mainline railway station and the Gatwick Express into London Victoria, if that's part of your onward journey.
GROUPS & FAMILY TRAVEL
One minibus, not three separate cars.
Gatwick's low-cost and holiday-charter routes mean a lot of our bookings here are families and groups rather than solo business travellers — the fleet is set up accordingly.
8-seater minibus
Covers up to seven passengers with luggage at one fixed fare, split between the group rather than booking several cars.
Estate for extra luggage
Two to three more suitcases of space than a saloon, useful for a family holiday without needing the full minibus.
ISOFIX seats included
Child and booster seats available at no extra charge with advance notice — specify the child's age when booking.
FLIGHT TRACKING
Your driver knows before you land.
Give us your flight number when booking and it's tracked against live arrival data for the whole journey. If your flight lands late, your pickup time shifts to match automatically — no waiting charge, no need to call and explain.
A driver waiting inside, not a text saying "outside"
Meet & greet is available on request at both terminals at no extra charge — your driver waits inside arrivals with a name board rather than leaving you to find a kerbside pickup point with cases in hand.
GATWICK TO GUILDFORD
Coming home, same price, same model.
The return journey — Gatwick to Guildford — is one of our most reliably booked routes, and it works exactly the same way as the outbound leg: a fixed fare confirmed before you fly, with your flight tracked so a delayed landing doesn't leave you stranded or paying more.
Book both legs together
Booking your return at the same time as your outbound journey means a driver is already scheduled and tracking your flight before you've even left Guildford — no need to arrange anything from inside the terminal after a long trip.
HOW PRICING WORKS
One fare, agreed before you fly.
Fares are calculated from vehicle type and your exact Guildford address. The price doesn't change for terminal, time of day, or a delayed landing.
A family of four flying from Gatwick with three suitcases would typically book an estate car from a GU postcode: a fixed fare from around £52–56, confirmed at booking, covering the vehicle, standard waiting time and flight tracking — with nothing added afterwards.
