Southampton Cruise Transfers
Southampton Cruise Terminal Transfers
Southampton is the UK's cruise capital, home port to Cunard's Queens, P&O's fleet and sailings from Princess, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, MSC, NCL and more, and it has five separate cruise terminals spread across two docks. Delivering you to the right berth, on time, with every case handled, is precisely the job. Harringtons runs chauffeured cruise transfers from London, all airports and anywhere in the UK to every Southampton terminal, timed to your embarkation and fixed in price.
We take you to the right terminal, not just the right port
Southampton's terminals sit up to a 40-minute walk apart, behind different dock gates. Your ship's terminal is stated on your cruise e-ticket, we confirm it with you before travel and deliver you to that forecourt door. Lines are not fixed to terminals, the same ship can switch berths between sailings, which is why we always confirm against your e-ticket.
London to Southampton, the journey
Around 80 miles via the M3, typically 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours 15 minutes door-to-door. We plan backwards from your embarkation window, add margin for sailing-day port traffic at the dock gates, and include a comfort stop on request. Disembarking? We monitor your ship's arrival and your luggage-tag timing, and meet you at the terminal exit with a name board.
Sailing with P&O, Cunard, Princess or another line?
Heathrow and Gatwick to Southampton run daily in season with flight tracking and meet & greet; pre-cruise London stays connect seamlessly via our hotel chauffeur service; and a pre-sailing Windsor or Stonehenge day makes the trip a holiday before the holiday.

How long is London to Southampton?
Typically around two hours by chauffeured car; we build in margin for sailing-day traffic at the dock gates.
