6 seater taxi in Kingston

When a 6 seater makes sense

A standard saloon takes up to four passengers. As soon as you are five or six people, or four people with a lot of luggage, a 6 seater MPV is usually the better choice. One car means everyone arrives together, nobody waits for a second taxi, and you only pay one fare.

The journeys people book a 6 seater for most often are:

• Family holidays. Two adults, three or four children, and the cases that come with them.
• Airport runs for friends travelling together, such as a hen party, a stag weekend or a golf trip.
• Nights out and events. Getting a group to a restaurant in Kingston, a concert in town or a race day at Sandown Park.
• Visitors staying with you, collected together from the station or the airport.

Seats and luggage

As a guide, a 6 seater MPV takes six passengers with a moderate amount of luggage, such as hand luggage for everyone plus a few large cases. With fewer passengers, the rear seats can give extra space for bags. Every car is different, so please tell us exactly how many people and how many large cases, small cases, pushchairs or golf bags you have. If it will not all fit, we will suggest a 7 or 8 seater instead.

Typical capacity figures are a guide only. Always give us your passenger and luggage numbers when you book.

6 seater airport transfers from Kingston

Many of our 6 seater bookings are airport transfers. For families flying from Heathrow, the Kingston to Heathrow taxi page covers terminals and timings. For Gatwick, see our Kingston to Gatwick taxi page. We track your flight on the return, and meet and greet in arrivals is available on request, which helps when you are rounding up a group and its luggage.

Child seats in a larger car

Child seats are available on request in our 6 seaters. Tell us how many children need a seat and their ages, and we will fit them before pick-up.

Booking a 6 seater

Choose the MPV option in the booking form, or call us on 020 8390 5395. You will see the fare before you confirm, and it stays fixed for the journey as booked. Larger cars are in demand during school holidays and at weekends, so it is worth booking early for those dates.

Comparing a 6 seater with two cars

Two saloons can carry eight people, but they need two drivers, two arrival times and, usually, two fares. A 6 seater keeps your group together, which makes a real difference at an airport, where waiting for the second half of the party can eat into check-in time. It is also easier to coordinate pick-up from home when only one car needs to park.

From anywhere near Kingston

We send 6 seaters to addresses across Kingston and the surrounding area, including Surbiton, Chessington and Worcester Park. For regular weekday journeys with several children, it also works well as a school run taxi.
