London to Dover: what to know

Dover's cruise terminals are in the Western Docks, away from the ferry port and the town station. Trains from St Pancras reach Dover Priory quickly, but the terminal is a further journey with your cases.

A car takes you from your London address to the terminal itself, and collects you on the way home.

The usual route is the A2 and M2, then the A2 into Dover.

  • The cruise terminal, not the ferry port

    Dover's cruise terminals are in the Western Docks, separate from the Eastern Docks ferry port. We go to the right one.

  • Room for cruise luggage

    Tell us how many cases you have. Two people with cruise luggage often need more than a Saloon.

  • Kent traffic in summer

    Roads to Dover can be busy with ferry traffic in the holidays. We allow for it when we plan your pickup.

London to Dover Cruise Terminal: common questions

What is the fixed fare for central London to Dover?
£170 one way in a Saloon, up to £340 in the Luxury Saloon. It is a fixed fare for the vehicle, not per passenger, and the same in either direction.
How long does central London to Dover take by car?
Usually 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes, by the A2 and M2, then the A2 into Dover. That is a guide, not a promise: we plan your pickup around when you need to arrive, not around the quickest the journey has ever taken.
Do you also go from Dover to central London?
Yes, at the same fixed fare. Book it the same way.
Do you collect from the ship at Dover?
Yes. Give us your ship and the expected disembarkation time and we will be there, with the return to London at the same fixed fare.
