A Chester Taxi Firm That Knows the City's Traffic

Chester is a walled Roman city with a cathedral, a racecourse and two thousand years of history inside the ring road. All of that is lovely to live in and slow to drive out of, especially on a race day or a busy Saturday.

The good news is that the motorway is close. The A55 runs along the south of the city and links to the M56, which then takes you to the M6. Most pickups are on a fast road within ten to fifteen minutes, as long as the driver knows which way to leave. That is the part we plan.

We are a fully licensed operator, and we run long airport journeys from Chester and the surrounding villages every week. You get the same service whether you book an executive car for a business trip or a family car with child seats already fitted.

The Route from Chester to Gatwick Airport

The journey is 244 miles and normally takes about four hours and nine minutes. Your driver takes the A55 out to the M56, joins the M6, then follows the M40, M25 and M23 down to the airport.

Getting out of Chester is the part that needs local knowledge. The city centre is not built for through traffic, and the ring road backs up quickly at certain hours. We choose the way out based on your pickup time rather than always going the same route.

After that,t it is steady motorway driving. We use the M40 near Birmingham instead of staying on the M6, because it brings you round to the west side of the M25, which usually moves better. We drop you right outside your terminal, and we can stop for a break on the way if you want one.

Chester to Gatwick Airport Taxi Prices

You are given one price when you book, and it stays the same. Each fare below covers the whole 244-mile journey from your Chester address to the North or South Terminal. Fuel, tolls and the driver’s time are already included, so there is no meter and nothing extra to pay at the end.
