The Royal Opera House, the West End theatres and The Savoy. Arrive on time and leave without the queue.
Covent Garden and the Strand are London's theatreland: the Royal Opera House, Theatre Royal Drury Lane and dozens of West End stages, with The Savoy and Somerset House nearby. Most bookings here are for evenings, and the hardest part of any evening is getting away at the end.
Because every show ends at about the same time, cabs disappear and the streets fill. A chauffeur waiting at an agreed point means you leave in minutes. During the day we also drive many clients to offices, fashion events and lunches in the area.
Places are listed to help you plan. They are destinations we drive to, not partners or endorsements. See everywhere we cover.
Every theatre empties at once. We agree a pick-up point a short walk from the crowds, so you are in the car while others are still looking for a cab.
Cars reach The Savoy through Savoy Court, famous as the one road in Britain where traffic drives on the right. It makes for a beautiful arrival.
Much of Covent Garden is pedestrianised. We drop as close as the streets allow and tell you exactly where the car will be.
Royal Opera House performances can run long. With hourly hire your chauffeur simply waits, whatever time the curtain falls.
