Esskay Cars provides private taxi and airport transfer services across Kingston, covering Kingston upon Thames, New Malden, Surbiton, Tolworth, and the surrounding KT postcodes. Whether you need a local taxi, an airport transfer to Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton, or London City, or a seaport transfer to Dover, Tilbury, Southampton, Portsmouth, or Harwich, we run fixed-price journeys with licensed, insured, and DBS-checked drivers.
Getting around from Kingston
From Kingston, South Western Railway trains reach London Waterloo in around 30 minutes. For airport runs, cruise days or anything with a lot of luggage, a booked car from your door is usually simpler than changing trains.
Where we pick up in Kingston
We collect from anywhere in the Royal Borough, including Kingston town centre, Norbiton, Surbiton, Kingston Hill and New Malden (KT1 to KT3). If you are staying near the Bentall Centre or the riverside, the driver will wait on a side street where stopping is allowed, since the one-way system around the town centre has few safe places to pull in. Most journeys leave the area on the A3 Kingston bypass.
Drop-offs in Kingston cover the town centre, Surbiton, Norbiton, Coombe and New Malden. Give us the full address and postcode and the driver will take you to the door rather than the nearest main road, which matters with luggage around the town-centre one-way system.
Included with every Kingston booking
- A fixed fare, agreed before you travel
- Licensed, insured and DBS-checked drivers
- Saloon, estate, MPV and 8-seater vehicles
