London City to Greenwich Transfer
London City to Greenwich chauffeur transfers from £45. Fixed fares, meet & greet, flight tracking and free waiting, door-to-door comfort with Westway Ride.
Greenwich sits just downriver from the airport, close enough that the journey feels less like a transfer and more like crossing a neighbourhood. Yet the two worlds could hardly be more different: leave the brisk, glassy efficiency of the Royal Docks and within minutes you are among the masts of the Cutty Sark, the colonnades of the Old Royal Naval College and the green rise toward the Observatory. It is a transfer that carries you from London's newest business quarter into its maritime past in the space of a single short drive.
For visitors here on business at the science park or the university, and for those arriving to enjoy the riverside and the Meridian, a chauffeur removes the awkwardness of the river crossing entirely. No working out whether to go over the Blackwall reach or under it, no shuffling bags onto a foot tunnel lift. You are met at London City, settled into the car, and taken directly to your hotel, college or quayside without a moment spent deciphering the geography of the bend in the Thames.
Travel Time, Distance & Pricing
Depending on traffic the chauffeur will either drop south around the riverside or cut under the water, covering roughly 5 miles in about 18 minutes to reach the heart of the old town. The O2 on the peninsula sits almost on the route, should that be your destination instead. Fares are fixed and inclusive from £45, with waiting time and meet-and-greet accounted for. There is no surge pricing, whatever the hour or the events calendar.

Why Choose Westway Rides?

questions
Everything you need to know about your transfer.
Either, depending on live traffic. The chauffeur chooses the faster of the riverside route and the under-river crossing on the day, so you simply arrive without thinking about it.
Yes. The historic centre has setting-down points close to the main attractions, and the driver will get you as near as the pedestrianised streets permit.
Of course. The O2 on the Greenwich Peninsula is moments from this route; tell us at booking and we will set the destination and a sensible pickup point for after the show.
Very much so. We can provide larger vehicles and child seats on request, which makes the riverside arrival far easier than navigating the foot tunnel or the DLR with bags and youngsters.
A day or two ahead is ample for most weekends, though we suggest booking sooner when a major O2 concert coincides, as local roads fill quickly around show times.
