Meet & Greet at the terminal gate covers every cruise terminal at the Port of Southampton. CCTV-secure compound, our own drivers, £2m insurance. Park & Ride is fully booked for the season.
Drive to your departure terminal. We take the car from there.
Every space is committed for the season, so we are not taking Park & Ride bookings. We take 10% off Meet & Greet instead.

Trading Standards Buy With Confidence accredited. Family-run from Southampton.
You see the same drivers each trip, not a roster of contractors. They know every Southampton terminal, every blue and white flag spot, every short-stay quirk. Returning customers get back to a familiar face on the gangway, not a stranger.
No aggregator markup, no fuel surcharge at the gate, no peak-week multiplier. The quote from the booking form is the total, fully inclusive. We do not resell anyone else's slots and we are not resold on price-comparison sites either.
Every key handover is filmed on a body camera, both ways. The condition of your car is logged into the same footage. Cover runs continuously for the full duration of your sailing, not just the seconds the keys are in our hand.
Same compound, same insurance. Here's where the two services differ.

We work every cruise terminal in Southampton. Meet & Greet drops you at the gangway. Park & Ride meets you off-site and shuttles you in. Same compound, same drivers for both.
