London Gatwick Airport Transfer — LGW

London Gatwick Airport (LGW) is the UK's second busiest airport and London's primary hub for budget and medium-haul carriers — home to easyJet's largest base and a major base for British Airways short-haul. Located 47 km south of central London, it has two terminals: North and South. The Gatwick Express reaches Victoria in 30 minutes, but Victoria is not most travellers' final destination. A private transfer from LocalsRide takes you directly from arrivals to your hotel or address anywhere in London at a fixed price.

Transfers start from £40 — fixed price, confirmed at booking. No meter, no hidden fees, no surge pricing.
