Why Book Your Dover Port Taxi with Airport Rides UK?

Why Book Your Dover Port Taxi with Airport Rides UK?

The majority of people book a Dover port transfer by calling around for quotes and assuming that the quoted price is the price they will pay. We make that comparison for you in seconds! Make a single booking and view fixed tariffs of authorised operators in one place. It’s certainly not a run to leave to chance, down to the Kent coast. The cruise check-in windows will be tight, and the ferry port operates its own beat. A pre-booked Dover port taxi is an arrangement that allows you to know the driver, the vehicle, and the complete fare before getting in a taxi. No matter if you are looking for a car to/from the cruise port in Dover that departs early in the morning or one that arrives to meet your ship as it docks, rates are fixed at the time of booking.

The UK licenses all the operators on the list as private hire or taxi drivers and have valid vehicle insurance and driver DBS certification. If your journey alters on the day due to traffic or road closures/diversions, your quoted fare will not go up after booking. No additional costs in connection with the fixed fare. No booking fees, no service charges, and no hidden additional fees when booking.

  • Licensed operators only. Pre-booking licensing, insurance, and DBS checks are done before an operator books in.
  • Fare Protection Guarantee. We refund any difference in the operator’s fare over and above your quoted fare.
  • Provide information on drivers beforehand. Name, vehicle registration and contact number are provided at least 2 hours before pick-up.
  • Boot space suitable for cruising. After a fortnight at sea, the vehicles matched up to the luggage he actually requires.

Extensive Fleet & Premium Service

May I make a return trip at the same time?
Yes. If you're on the Return booking form, switch it to Search before and after both legs are booked and confirmed at the same time. 
Do I have the option of changing or cancelling my booking?
Yes. Amendment / Cancellation should be carried out via your booking reference or by submitting a request to our support team. Please confirm the cancellation window and whether there is a fee. I do not have this policy. 
How do I know that I have a booking?
An e-mail and SMS reminder are sent upon payment. Your driver's name, vehicle details and contact number are sent in advance of pick-up time. 
Does the quoted price include all tax and duties?

What forms of payment do you take?
Confirm cards accepted and/or cash to driver/pay on arrival. I can't confirm this on your site. 
What are the reasons for the variation in prices among operators?
Operators establish their own rates that depend on vehicle class, location, and availability. The only way to really be able to find cheap airport transfers is to compare them side by side. 
Do you have a fee for early morning / late night trips?
This time variation is already included in the quote that you are viewing. This is the figure you are charged, irrespective of the hour, on booking. 
What will be done if my air flight is delayed?
At all airports, we record the time of arrival and automatically update your driver's arrival time. Extra charges for delayed landing are not applicable. 
What is the amount of free waiting time?
Confirm the waiting time policy for airports and for residential addresses. Do not publish a figure until this is verified.
At what airport location will my driver be waiting for me?
On meet and greet appointments, your driver is in the arrivals hall with a name board to greet you and assist with your luggage. The day of kerbside pick-up points are confirmed by SMS. 
Which British airports do you service?
All major terminals (Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton, London City, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Southend, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Newcastle). 
Is there coverage for cruise ports and railway stations?
Yes. We collect from Southampton, Dover, Harwich and Tilbury as well as all principal stations throughout the country.

Do Child seats fit in?
Please check and confirm availability and if there are any charges for this. If available: include: ask when booking for them to be in the right seat. 
Do your drivers have licenses and check papers?
Yes. Before accepting any booking, each operator on the platform completes a compliance review of 12 points, including insurance for their private airport transfer licenses and checking the background of their drivers.
