Cruise luggage and comfortable vehicle choices
Cruise travel often involves larger suitcases, cabin bags and extra belongings. Tell us the passenger count and number and approximate size of all bags so we can recommend a suitable vehicle class.
An executive or luxury saloon can suit a smaller party with modest luggage. An executive van provides more space for families and groups, with suitability checked against the assigned vehicle and seating arrangement. Mention pushchairs, mobility equipment and child-seat requests in advance. For larger parties, minibus or coach transport can be arranged through a separate enquiry and personalised quote.

- Child seats and larger-group transport requested in advance
Collection after your cruise
Your ship’s arrival time and the time you are ready to leave the terminal may differ. Share your planned disembarkation time, terminal if known and onward destination so we can agree a useful collection time and explain how to meet your chauffeur.
If you are travelling to an airport, include your flight departure time and airline check-in guidance. If disembarkation changes, contact our team by phone or WhatsApp so we can coordinate with your driver. Your confirmation explains the included waiting allowance and any additional waiting or parking costs.

Sightseeing before or after your cruise
Make your transfer part of a wider day out with sightseeing stops agreed in advance. A Southampton journey can include Stonehenge, Windsor or another preferred stop, depending on your starting point, travel schedule and final destination. We’ll help choose a practical route and allow time for the places you want to visit.
Share any cruise boarding deadline, flight departure and attraction entry times when enquiring. Your quote will confirm the itinerary, driver waiting or hire period, and fare. You purchase attraction admission tickets separately; we can help with timing and official booking information. This is private transport rather than a guided tour.
