So close to Heathrow
Kingston is one of the closest towns in our area to Heathrow. The driver crosses the Thames at Kingston Bridge and heads through Hampton and Feltham to the airport, a route with no motorway at all. Buses (the 285 and X26) also run to Heathrow, but with suitcases a taxi from your door is far easier. See Kingston to Heathrow.
Gatwick from Kingston
For Gatwick, the driver takes the A3 or A243 south to the M25 at Leatherhead, round to junction 7 and down the M23. A saloon costs from £64. See Kingston to Gatwick.
Students and the university
At the start and end of each term, we help Kingston University students move in and out with their luggage, and take students to the airports for flights home. An estate or MPV has room for boxes and cases.
Into London
The A3 makes central London easy to reach from Kingston. We take customers to the West End, the City, the rail terminals and London hotels. See our London taxi page.
