Gatwick chauffeur service, North and South Terminals

Gatwick (LGW) is London's second-busiest airport, with two passenger terminals, North Terminal and South Terminal, linked by a free automated shuttle. A Gatwick chauffeur service collects you from the arrivals hall of either terminal with a licensed driver, an executive car and a fare fixed before you travel. Vinta Rides runs it under Transport for London private hire operator licence 73850301.

The airport sits about 30 miles south of central London, reached by the M23 and A23, or the M25 for the counties and the other airports. Because the drive depends on the traffic, the fare is agreed at booking rather than metered, and every pickup includes flight tracking, meet and greet, and up to 60 minutes of free waiting after you land.

You choose the class to suit the trip. Business Class is the executive saloon for one to three passengers, First Class steps up to the flagship cabin, and the Mercedes-Benz Vito and Minibus carry a group and its luggage. Hourly hire starts at £45.

This page covers the terminals we serve, how the fixed fare works, the roads into and out of the airport, the fleet, and how a chauffeur compares with the Gatwick Express and the train, with answers to the questions travellers ask most.

Executive chauffeur service
2 terminals · Meet & greet

Gatwick runs from two terminals, North and South, linked by a free inter-terminal shuttle that takes a couple of minutes. Between them they handle British Airways, easyJet, Virgin Atlantic and a long list of short-haul and long-haul carriers. Your chauffeur meets you in the arrivals hall of whichever terminal your flight lands at, so you never move between them yourself.

The roads set the journey. Gatwick sits south of London off the M23, which feeds the A23 into the city and the M25 for the counties and the other airports. Drive time depends entirely on the traffic on those roads, which is why the fare is fixed at booking. Whatever the road does, the price you agreed is the price you pay.

Your chauffeur tracks the flight in real time and sets the pickup to your actual landing time, then waits up to 60 minutes after you touch down at no extra charge. Meet and greet in arrivals, help with the luggage, and a door-to-door run to your address come on every booking.

Against the train, a chauffeur trades a few minutes for far less effort. The Gatwick Express runs to London Victoria, and Thameslink and Southern services reach London Bridge and beyond, quickly and to a fixed timetable, but they terminate at a station, you carry your own bags, and you finish the journey by taxi or Tube. A chauffeur starts at the arrivals door and ends at your address, on your landing time rather than a schedule.

Against a black cab or a ride-hailing app, the difference is the price and the certainty. A metered cab charges by time and traffic, and an app can surge when demand is high. A pre-booked chauffeur fixes the fare before you travel and has a named driver waiting in arrivals, so there is no queue at the rank and no surprise at the end.

Chauffeur hire by the hour or the day

Hourly hire works two ways. Take a car and driver as-directed, by the hour or for a full day, and keep them with you between stops. Or book a single point-to-point run at a fixed fare. The same vetted driver and executive Mercedes cover both, on one clear price, the practical choice when a meter and a stranger will not do.

What a luxury chauffeur service delivers

Our clients expect more than a smart car. Every booking includes a professional driver in business dress, bottled water and chargers in the cabin, a quiet space to work or rest, and a route planned around the traffic. For VIPs and private clients, discretion is the default, with no surge, no shared ride and no guesswork about who turns up.

Frequently Asked

We’re here to answer all your questions

Everything you need to know about booking, coverage and the Vinta Rides experience, and our team is a call away, day or night.

We cover both Gatwick terminals, North Terminal and South Terminal. Your chauffeur meets you in the arrivals hall of whichever terminal your flight lands at, so there is no need to cross to the other one.

Gatwick sits about 30 miles south of central London. The drive uses the M23 and A23, or the M25 from further out, so the time depends on traffic, which is why the fare is fixed before you travel rather than metered.

Airport transfers are quoted as a fixed fare before you book, set by distance and vehicle class, and hourly hire starts at £45 an hour. The price you agree is the price you pay, with meet and greet and waiting time included and no surge.

You can book six classes: Business Class, First Class, Mercedes-Benz Vito, Business Van/SUV, Range Rover and Minibus. Business Class is the executive saloon for one to three passengers, and the Vito and Minibus carry larger groups and their luggage.

Your chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall with a name board, once you have cleared baggage reclaim. They help with the luggage and walk you to the car.

Every Gatwick booking includes up to 60 minutes of free waiting after you land. Flight tracking sets the pickup to your actual arrival time, so a delayed flight does not cost you extra.

Nothing changes for you. Your chauffeur tracks the flight in real time and adjusts the pickup to when you actually land, with up to 60 minutes of free waiting after touchdown.

A chauffeur runs door to door and tracks your flight, while the Gatwick Express runs to London Victoria on a fixed timetable and terminates at the station. The train is quick to Victoria, but you carry your own luggage and finish the journey by taxi or Tube. A chauffeur meets you in arrivals and takes you to your exact address on your landing time.

A pre-booked chauffeur fixes the fare before you travel and has a driver waiting in arrivals, while a black cab meters the fare by time and traffic and a ride-hailing app can surge at busy times. All three are door to door, but only the chauffeur guarantees the price and removes the queue at the rank.
