Questions
How long does Heathrow to Cambridge take?
Usually about 1 hour 30 to 1 hour 45 minutes for roughly 75 miles, longer in rush hour.
Is a car better than the train?
With luggage, children or a late arrival, usually yes. The train needs a change across London, while the car goes door to door.
Can you collect from Stansted instead?
Yes. Stansted is closer to Cambridge, and we cover both airports.
Can several passengers share one car?
Yes. The price is per vehicle, not per person.
