The journey, and where we pick up and drop
Pick-up in Portsmouth is at your door, whether that is the town centre, a Hampshire village or a business park; the driver is named the day before and texts on arrival. At the station end we drop at the Praed Street or Eastbourne Terrace entrance, whichever your train uses. Returns are met at the barriers, useful for Heathrow Express connections too.
At 72 miles this is a 1.8-2.6 hrs drive in normal conditions. Roadworks and rush hour are the driver’s problem, not yours: the fare is fixed either way.
London Paddington to Portsmouth: the return leg
London Paddington to Portsmouth is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. For an airport or station pick-up we track the flight or train, meet you at the agreed point and include waiting time, so a delay never changes the price. Book both legs together and the return is 1.8 times a single; if plans change, one message moves the booking.
