Pick-up in Portsmouth, drop-off at Alton Towers
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Portsmouth or the Hampshire towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At Alton Towers we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for park days and the hotels when the roads around the venue are closed.
The drive is about 177 miles; the driver checks closures and event-day traffic orders and picks the fastest route on the day, so the time above already allows for normal traffic.
Alton Towers to Portsmouth: the journey home
Alton Towers to Portsmouth 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 park days and the hotels, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Portsmouth. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
Event days at Alton Towers
For park days and the hotels 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 Portsmouth 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.
