Somerset House Transfers

Somerset House on the Strand is one of London's most beautiful event venues — the neoclassical courtyard hosts the famous ice rink each November–January, the Summer Series of courtyard concerts each July, outdoor cinema seasons, fashion events and exhibitions, alongside a year-round cultural programme in the surrounding wings. The winter rink in particular is a signature London evening: skating under the courtyard lights followed by dinner nearby.

Get London Transfer provides fixed-price chauffeured transfers to Somerset House for all of it — rink sessions, Summer Series concerts, private and corporate events in the courtyard and river rooms. Hotel pickups across the West End, home pickups from the Home Counties, and airport transfers for visitors with a rink session or concert booked into their London stay.

Fixed-price transfers from every London airport direct to Somerset House, with meet-and-greet in the arrivals hall, flight tracking, and 60 minutes' free waiting after landing. Prices below are for the Mercedes E-Class (up to 4 passengers); MPV, 8-seater and S-Class options are quoted at booking.

Somerset House's main entrance is directly on the Strand, with the Embankment entrance below on Victoria Embankment. The Strand frontage is busy but workable for a swift drop; for pickups — especially post-rink evening slots and concert finishes — we agree the exact side (Strand or Embankment, plus Lancaster Place corner) in advance. Summer Series nights see the Strand slow at close; drivers position early.

Two seasonal spikes to target in content and internal links: the Nov–Jan ice rink (family evening trips, date nights) and the July Summer Series (concert returns). Year-round corporate events fill the middle.

25 years TfL licensed. Get London Transfer has held a Transport for London Private Hire Operator licence continuously since 2000. We are not a rideshare aggregator — our drivers are individually contracted, and the same driver handles a multi-leg booking. 2026 UK Transport Awards Winner (Best SME Transport Provider — SME News), with a 4.9-star average across 2,150+ verified reviews.

Fixed prices, agreed at booking. No meter. No surge. No event-night uplift. No late-night surcharge. No "tolls extra", no "parking extra", no "congestion charge extra". The price at 1am after the encore is the price you agreed at lunchtime — which is exactly when on-demand apps around Somerset House are multiplying their fares.

Event-day route knowledge. Our drivers work London's event calendar daily: they know Somerset House's traffic management, the workable drop-off points, and the pickup positions that clear the area fastest afterwards. That knowledge is the product.

Pre-booked returns. We agree your pickup point and time before the event, position the driver in advance, and adjust by live message if plans change. You walk out to a waiting car instead of joining the crowd staring at a surging app.

The right vehicle. Mercedes E-Class executive (up to 4), MPV 6-seater, 8-seat Mercedes Vito, chauffeured S-Class VIP, and 16-seat Sprinter coach (VAT zero-rated for 10+ seats). Child seats, water and phone charging included.
