Heathrow Airport to Kensington Private Transfer

A private transfer from Heathrow to Kensington takes about 32 minutes on our route data, depending on traffic and your terminal, with base fares from £41.16. Kensington is one of the closest Central London districts to Heathrow on the routes we price.

Arriving in Kensington

Kensington is in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Many visitors arriving from Heathrow are heading for South Kensington's museums — the Natural History Museum and the V&A on Cromwell Road, and the Science Museum on Exhibition Road — or for hotels and homes nearby. The Natural History Museum notes that it has no on-site parking and that parking around it is limited, so plan to be dropped at the door rather than park.

Choosing a vehicle for Kensington

Families going straight from the airport to a hotel near the museums often travel with pushchairs as well as cases. Enter your pushchairs, trolley bags and suitcases when you book: only vehicles with room for all of them can be selected, and the larger passenger vehicles carry more pushchairs than a Saloon.

At Heathrow

MisterFare serves Terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5. Heathrow does not allow pick-ups on its terminal forecourts, so follow the meeting instructions supplied with your booking. Your pickup time is not changed automatically if your flight is early or late; 15 minutes of waiting is included in the fare, and longer waiting options are shown during booking. Our Heathrow airport transfers page covers terminals and pickup planning in more detail.

Fares on this route

Base fares currently run from £41.16 for a Saloon to £246.93 for the 12-24 Seater Bus, with every vehicle in between priced in the table above. Your final price depends on the exact address, date, time and party, and any charge that applies to your journey is shown as its own line before you pay.
