A Chauffeur Service Born in Soho

Our story starts on the streets of the West End. For more than 30 years, we have collected clients from Mayfair hotels, Savile Row tailors, Soho House members’ clubs, Covent Garden theatres and the offices of Fitzrovia and St James’s.

That experience matters when you are on a schedule. Our chauffeurs know which hotel entrances allow a car to wait, where to set down outside a theatre at curtain time, and how to route around Oxford Street closures and Regent Street events.

Today, that same West End standard covers the whole of London, from boardrooms in the City and Canary Wharf to homes in Hampstead, Richmond and Wimbledon.

Our Chauffeur Services

When you have back-to-back meetings, your car should be the one part of the day you do not think about. Your chauffeur arrives early, knows the addresses on your itinerary, and has the car ready the moment you walk out of each meeting.

The cabin of an E-Class or S-Class gives you a quiet, private space to take calls, review documents or prepare for the next meeting between appointments. For visiting clients and senior guests, a chauffeur-driven car sets the right tone from the first handshake.

Our chauffeurs meet you in the arrivals hall at Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton, London City and the private aviation airports at Biggin Hill, Farnborough and Oxford. Every collection includes flight monitoring, so your chauffeur adjusts to early and late landings.

Free waiting is 40 minutes for European flights and one hour for international flights, counted from your landing time.

Some days do not fit a single journey. With as-directed hire, your chauffeur stays with you for the hours you book and takes you wherever you need to go next, without you planning every stop in advance.

It is ideal for multi-stop business days, shopping in Bond Street and Knightsbridge, property viewings, and visitors who want a car on standby throughout their stay.

An evening in the West End is better when you do not have to find a taxi at 11pm. Your chauffeur drops you at the restaurant or theatre door, and is waiting when the show finishes, however busy Shaftesbury Avenue gets.

We also drive clients to London’s major events, including Wimbledon, Twickenham, Lord’s, Royal Ascot, the Chelsea Flower Show, charity galas and award ceremonies. At events with restricted vehicle access, we plan set-down and pickup points in advance.

For weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays and proposals, a chauffeur-driven Mercedes S-Class adds a sense of occasion without the fuss. Your chauffeur plans the timings with you, so the bride, groom or guest of honour arrives exactly when they should.

For wedding guests and larger parties, we can coordinate several vehicles, including our 8-seater Mercedes Vito for groups.

A chauffeur is the most comfortable way to see the places around London that trains do not reach easily. Popular day trips include Windsor Castle, Oxford, Bicester Village, Cambridge, Bath, Stonehenge and the Cotswolds.

We also drive long-distance business journeys across the UK. You can work or rest in the back while your chauffeur handles the motorway.

Private aviation passengers expect a car at the steps, not a wait in the terminal. We coordinate with FBOs and handling agents at Biggin Hill, Farnborough, Oxford and the business aviation terminals at the main London airports, so your chauffeur is ready when you clear arrivals.

For high-profile clients, our chauffeurs work with complete discretion. Your itinerary, your guests and your conversations stay private.

Our Chauffeur Cars

Mercedes-Benz E-Class (Executive)

The E-Class is our standard chauffeur car for business travel. It seats up to three passengers in a quiet leather cabin, with room for two large suitcases, and it suits airport runs, meetings and client pickups.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class (Luxury)

The S-Class is Mercedes’ flagship saloon and our top-tier chauffeur car. It has more rear legroom, a smoother ride and the presence that VIP arrivals, weddings and senior executives call for.

Chauffeur Travel for Groups

For families and business teams travelling together, our VW Sharan (XL) seats up to six passengers and our Mercedes Vito (XL-Plus) seats up to eight, each with a professional driver and space for luggage.

Any Car on Request

If you have a particular vehicle in mind, such as a specific luxury model, an SUV or a matching set of cars for a wedding or event, tell us when you book. We can arrange vehicles beyond our standard fleet to suit your occasion.

What to Expect from Your Chauffeur

Your booking is confirmed by email or SMS, with your chauffeur’s details sent before pickup. Your chauffeur arrives early, smartly dressed, and ready to help with bags and doors.

Routes are planned in advance around roadworks, closures and event traffic. For airport collections, your chauffeur tracks your flight and meets you in arrivals with a name board.

Every car is cleaned before each booking. Smoking and drinking alcohol are not permitted in our vehicles, so every passenger steps into a fresh cabin.

Chauffeur, Minicab or Ride-Hailing App: What Is the Difference?

In London, every car hired with a driver must be licensed by Transport for London as a private hire vehicle, and so must its driver. The only exemption is for vehicles used purely for weddings or funerals. That means a legitimate chauffeur service, a minicab and an app ride all sit under the same licensing rules.

The difference lies in the vehicle, the driver and the service. A chauffeur booking gives you a premium car, a driver who is dressed and briefed for your day, and a car that waits for you rather than dropping you and leaving. With ride-hailing apps, you get whichever car is nearest, and prices can surge at busy times.

When you book any chauffeur in London, check the operator is TfL licensed. Unlicensed “chauffeur” cars are not covered by the same insurance or safety checks.

Corporate Chauffeur Accounts

Businesses across the City, Canary Wharf and the West End use Soho Car Services for staff travel, client hospitality and airport runs. A corporate account gives you monthly invoicing, priority booking and a single point of contact for every journey your team makes.

Your assistants and PAs can book on your behalf, and we keep your preferences on file, from the vehicle class your directors prefer to the pickup instructions for your office.

Book Your London Chauffeur

Visiting London?

London is at its best when you can move between its highlights at your own pace. Spend a morning at the museums of South Kensington, lunch in Mayfair, an afternoon along the South Bank and an evening in a West End theatre, with a chauffeur taking you from door to door throughout. For visitors staying a few days, a chauffeur on standby turns a busy itinerary into a relaxed one, and a day trip to Windsor or Oxford becomes part of the holiday rather than a logistics puzzle.
