Limo Hire London Prices

Our one-hour limo hire prices for non-key dates currently start from £379 for an eight-passenger limousine.

As a general guide, the one-hour prices shown on this page range from:

• £379 to £499 for most eight-passenger limousines
• From £499 for a 13-passenger limousine
• From £519 to £599 for larger 16-passenger limousines and party buses

Rare and specialist vehicles, including the Ferrari limousine, Fire Engine and 24-passenger Party Bus, are priced according to availability.

The exact cost depends on the vehicle, date, pickup location, destination, hire duration, number of stops and any additional requirements.

The prices displayed on this page are for hiring the whole vehicle, not for an individual passenger seat.

This can make a larger limousine surprisingly affordable when the cost is shared. For example, an eight-passenger limousine costing £379 works out at approximately £47.38 per passenger when all eight seats are occupied. A 16-passenger Ford Excursion starting from £519 works out at approximately £32.44 per passenger when the cost is divided between 16 people.

Per-person figures are provided only as a helpful comparison. One person will normally need to make and take responsibility for the booking.

A “from” price is the lowest starting price available for that vehicle on a qualifying non-key date and for a straightforward itinerary.

Your booking may cost more when it involves a peak date, a longer route, additional pickup addresses, several stops, extended waiting time or specialist requests. Vehicle availability can also affect the final price.

We will calculate the quotation using the complete details of your booking so that you can see the total cost before deciding whether to proceed.

A non-key date is a date that is not treated as a period of unusually high demand for the requested vehicle.

Key dates can vary between vehicles and may include popular school prom evenings, Saturdays during the main wedding season, Bank Holiday weekends, Christmas and New Year, major London events and other dates when availability is limited.

The easiest way to check is to provide your exact date and preferred vehicle. We can then confirm whether the standard non-key-date price applies.

London limo hire prices vary because no two bookings require exactly the same vehicle, route or amount of time.

The main pricing factors are:

• The limousine or party bus selected
• The vehicle’s passenger capacity
• The date and pickup time
• The total hire period
• Pickup and destination postcodes
• The number of pickup points and stops
• Waiting time
• Airport, parking or venue arrangements
• Decorations or other optional requirements

A short, off-peak booking with one pickup and one destination will normally cost less than a peak-date itinerary involving several collections, stops and waiting periods.

A one-hour booking reserves the agreed limousine and chauffeur for a planned one-hour hire period.

It does not necessarily mean that you receive 60 minutes of cruising after every passenger has boarded. Your pickup, journey, requested stops and final drop-off must normally fit within the booked period unless a different itinerary has been agreed.

Your quotation and booking confirmation should make clear:

• When the hire period begins
• The agreed pickup time and address
• Any included stops
• The final destination
• When the booked period ends
• What happens if additional time is required

Providing a complete itinerary when requesting your quote helps us price the journey accurately.

Yes. Limousines can be booked for longer journeys, return transport, continuous hire and multi-hour events.

A longer package may be better suited to weddings, proms, birthdays, sightseeing, corporate events or evenings involving several venues. It may also offer better value than arranging separate one-hour bookings.

Tell us how long you expect to need the vehicle and whether you want the chauffeur to remain with you between journeys. We can then recommend the most appropriate hire structure.

A larger limousine usually costs more in total, but it can cost less per passenger when most of its seats are occupied.

For example:

• An eight-passenger stretched Lincoln from £379 is approximately £47.38 each when shared by eight passengers.
• A 13-passenger limousine from £499 is approximately £38.38 each when shared by 13 passengers.
• A 16-passenger Ford Excursion from £519 is approximately £32.44 each when shared by 16 passengers.
• A 16-passenger Party Bus from £559 is approximately £34.94 each when shared by 16 passengers.

Choose a vehicle with enough licensed seats for every passenger rather than trying to reduce the price by exceeding a smaller vehicle’s capacity.

The eight-passenger Pink Lincoln Limousine and eight-passenger Stretched Lincoln Limousine currently have the lowest advertised one-hour starting price at £379 on non-key dates.

The eight-passenger Lincoln Town Car starts from £399, while the Chrysler Baby Bentley starts from £429.

The lowest-priced vehicle is not always the best value for every booking. A larger limousine can work out cheaper per person, and a particular model may be better suited to your occasion, route or group size.

Your quoted price will be based on the pickup addresses, stops and destinations supplied when you make the enquiry.

Additional collections can increase the journey time and mileage, particularly when passengers are being collected from different parts of London. Unplanned stops requested on the day may also affect the price or may not be possible if the vehicle has another booking afterwards.

For the most accurate quotation, provide every intended pickup point and stop from the beginning.

Additional waiting or overtime may be charged when the booking continues beyond the agreed finishing time.

This can happen when passengers are late, a venue is not ready, an unplanned stop is added or the itinerary changes during the booking. London traffic should also be considered when arranging pickup and arrival times.

Any overtime terms should be explained in your quotation or booking conditions. Contact the booking team as early as possible when you think additional time may be required.

This depends on the route and the type of booking.

Some London journeys may involve costs such as:

• Congestion Charge
• Airport parking or terminal charges
• Venue parking
• Toll or access charges
• Additional waiting time

Where these costs apply to your itinerary, they should be included in or clearly itemised on your quotation before the booking is confirmed. Optional charges arising from changes requested later may be added separately.

They can. Proms and weddings frequently take place on a relatively small number of high-demand dates, which means the most popular vehicles can be booked well in advance.

Prom prices can also be affected by multiple household pickups, school arrival times, return transport and late-evening collection. Wedding prices may include ceremony waiting, several journeys, photography stops, ribbons or travel between different venues.

Providing the full itinerary allows the quotation to reflect what you actually need rather than relying on a basic one-hour starting price.

The best way to reduce the price without compromising the booking is to keep the itinerary simple and remain flexible where possible.

You may be able to obtain better value by:

• Choosing a non-key or weekday date
• Arranging one central pickup point
• Reducing the number of additional stops
• Selecting a vehicle based on capacity rather than a specific model
• Booking a one-way journey when return transport is not required
• Sharing the total price between all passengers
• Requesting the lowest-priced available vehicle suitable for your group
• Booking early for popular prom and wedding dates

The cheapest quotation should still provide a correctly licensed vehicle with enough passenger seats for everyone travelling.

Book as soon as your date, approximate time and group size are confirmed.

Early booking is particularly advisable for school prom season, summer Saturdays, major sporting events, Christmas parties, New Year and popular wedding dates. Specialist vehicles and pink limousines may also have limited availability.

A quotation or enquiry does not necessarily reserve a vehicle. The booking is normally secured only after the required deposit has been paid and written confirmation has been issued.

A deposit is normally required to secure the limousine, chauffeur and agreed booking time.

The amount can depend on the vehicle, total booking value and date. Your quotation should state:

• The deposit required
• Whether the deposit is refundable
• When the remaining balance is due
• The accepted payment methods
• The cancellation and date-change terms

Read these conditions before paying, particularly when booking for a prom, wedding or another event that cannot easily be rearranged.

No. Requesting a quote allows the date, itinerary and vehicle availability to be checked, but it does not normally reserve the limousine.

Your booking should be treated as confirmed only when you have completed the required payment step and received written confirmation containing the agreed vehicle or vehicle category, date, pickup time, itinerary and price.

Keep the confirmation available so that the details can be checked before the day of hire.

Your confirmation should state whether you are booking a particular limousine or a general vehicle category.

Where the make, model or colour is important—for example, a pink Hummer for a themed birthday—make this clear before paying the deposit. Ask for the exact vehicle details to be included in the written confirmation rather than relying only on a gallery photograph.

Vehicle substitution terms should also be explained in the booking conditions.

The maximum number of passengers depends on the licensed capacity of the individual vehicle. The driver cannot carry more people than the vehicle is legally authorised and insured to transport.

Count every passenger, including children, when choosing a limousine. Do not assume that a child can sit on another passenger’s lap or that an extra person can be added on the day.

Our published range includes vehicles for seven, eight, 13, 16 and 24 passengers, subject to the availability and licensed capacity of the particular vehicle supplied.

Bookings should be fulfilled using an appropriately licensed operator and vehicle for the advertised passenger capacity.

In general, limousines seating up to eight passengers operate under the relevant private-hire licensing requirements. Vehicles constructed or adapted for nine or more passengers require the applicable public-service-vehicle operator licensing.

The licensed capacity must not be exceeded, even when adding one more passenger would appear to reduce the cost per person.

For the most accurate quotation, provide:

• The date of hire
• Your preferred pickup time
• Pickup postcode
• Destination postcode
• Number of passengers
• Preferred limousine or party bus
• Required hire duration
• Every planned pickup point and stop
• Whether return transport is needed
• The occasion
• Any decorations or special requirements
• Airport and flight details, where relevant

Supplying this information at the beginning reduces the risk of the price changing because an important part of the itinerary was not included.

Yes. Once the date, route, vehicle, duration and requirements have been agreed, you should receive a written quotation showing the booking price.

Check that the quote covers the complete itinerary and identifies any costs that cannot yet be calculated. Changes made after confirmation—such as adding another pickup, extending the hire time or changing the destination—may require the price to be recalculated.

To receive an exact price, send us your date, pickup postcode, destination, passenger number and preferred vehicle.
