At the centre of everything
Charing Cross station stands on the Strand, right beside Trafalgar Square. It's the London terminus for Southeastern trains to south-east London and Kent. It's also within walking distance of Covent Garden, Leicester Square and many of the West End's theatres, with Embankment and the Thames just behind it.
Home after the theatre
For many of our passengers, Charing Cross is less about trains than about getting home after a show. When the curtain comes down, thousands of people leave at once, and finding a way home to Tolworth late at night can be a slog. Pre-book a car for when your show ends, and your driver will meet you at an agreed point near Charing Cross.
For a birthday, anniversary or special night out, our chauffeur service can take you there and back in an executive car. Or hire a car for the evening and have it wait for you.
Trains to Kent
If you're heading to Kent or south-east London by train, Charing Cross is often a better starting point than Victoria, depending on your destination. Check your route, then book a car to get you there with your luggage.
Drive times
Charing Cross is about 12 miles from Tolworth. The drive usually takes 40 to 60 minutes, and late evenings are usually quicker. The Strand is inside the Congestion Charge zone, so ask us how this affects your fare when you book.
