The service
Long Distance and Intercity Travel from London
Long journeys by train often mean a taxi to the station, a change or two, and another taxi at the other end, all while carrying your luggage. A private transfer takes you from door to door in one vehicle.
Banana Cars drives you from London to cities, towns, universities and airports across England, or brings you back into London. Your driver goes straight to the address you give us, at the time that suits you.

Tips for Long Distance Journeys
Small details that make a long trip easier.
Allow for traffic
If you need to arrive by a set time, for a check-in, ceremony or meeting, book a pickup with time to spare for motorway traffic.
Count every bag
Moving to university or going away for a while? Count every case and box, and choose a larger vehicle if you need the space.
Give the full address
Enter the full address and postcode at both ends, and add any access notes, such as a college gate or venue entrance.
Book your return
Coming back to London? Book the return at the same time so your ride home is sorted.
