Taking a train from Waterloo
Waterloo serves the south-west: Surrey commuter towns, the Hampshire coast, the New Forest and Dorset. If you are heading to Southampton for a cruise, to Bournemouth for a weekend, or to visit family in Guildford, a taxi from Croydon gets you to the station with all your luggage. There is no need to change at Clapham Junction with cases.
Cruise passengers heading to Southampton
Cruise luggage is heavy and plentiful. If you are taking the train from Waterloo to Southampton, a 7 seater taxi gives a couple or family plenty of room for cases. Let us know how many bags you have when you book.
An evening on the South Bank
Waterloo is also the easiest drop-off for the National Theatre, the Old Vic, the Southbank Centre and the London Eye. Book a car in and a pickup afterwards, and you can enjoy the evening without watching the clock for the last train. For a birthday group, our 6 seater taxi keeps everyone together.
Picking up and dropping off
The driver will drop you at a convenient point near the station entrance. For collections, agree the time and place with the office when you book. If your train is late, call or WhatsApp us and we will move the pickup.
Collecting from across Croydon
Waterloo is reached most easily from the northern side of the borough. From Norbury or Thornton Heath you are already on the A23. From Coulsdon in the south, allow a bit longer. If you are going on from Waterloo to Victoria or Charing Cross, see our Croydon to Victoria taxi and Croydon to Charing Cross taxi pages.
Waterloo for work and appointments
Waterloo is also close to St Thomas' Hospital, County Hall and the offices on the South Bank. Many customers book a car to Waterloo for a meeting or an appointment rather than a train. If you are going somewhere near the station rather than the station itself, give us the exact address, and the driver will drop you at the door.
