Cruise Port Transfers · York
York is an inland city, but a large number of cruise passengers either start their trip from a northern port or travel up for a day while their ship calls. We run transfers between York and Hull, the Tyne at North Shields and Southampton, with a luggage-friendly SUV and a fixed fare.
Where we take you
York's walled centre is closed to traffic through the day; race meetings at Knavesmire add an hour to every approach, which we build into departure timings.
Occasions and events in YorkHull's King George Dock has become a regular cruise port, around an hour away by road via the A63 and the M62 or the A1079. We time the arrival to the embarkation window and are comfortable with the dock security. Passengers who spend a night in York before sailing can leave the hotel with all luggage in the car.
The International Passenger Terminal at North Shields is about an hour and a half north via the A19 and the Tyne Tunnel. It handles a mix of turnaround and port-of-call ships. We plan with the Tyne Tunnel in mind, since the queue at peak times can add time, and we give you a firm collection time.
Southampton is a long day's drive from York, usually four hours or more, and passengers often prefer to travel the day before and stay overnight. Harwich and Tilbury can also be reached across the country via the A1 and M25 routes. We suggest the right approach for each ship.
If your ship calls at Hull or Newcastle, a day in York is an option. The chauffeur drops you near the Minster, waits and brings you back in time for all-aboard. We build in a buffer, because missing the sailing is the one mistake that costs the most.
Some visitors prefer to take the train to York and use a car only for the cruise leg. Others travel the whole way by road. We tailor the plan: a morning pickup at your York hotel, a drive east to Hull or north to the Tyne, and a return pickup on disembarkation day. The chauffeur loads luggage at the door and unloads at the terminal, so you board with a calm start.
The return can be a long one, especially from Southampton. The chauffeur waits at the terminal for your disembarkation slot and takes you straight home, stopping for a break if you ask. If the ship is delayed, we adjust, and the fixed fare does not change. We check the ship's progress through the day so you do not need to call.
Pickup calculated backwards from your boarding window and the port's traffic pattern.
Extended SUVs available for parties traveling with full cruise luggage.
Chauffeurs know the correct pier, lane and porter points at each cruise terminal.
We track the ship's arrival and hold the vehicle until you clear the terminal.
