Brighton, the liveliest seaside city in the south of England, is south of Heathrow past Gatwick: the favourite beach escape for people landing in London in summer. Zonetransfers sends a chauffeur to Heathrow arrivals (T2 to T5) before the run to Brighton at a fixed fare from €175.
By road, LHR to Brighton is roughly 130 km, around 1 h 45 min by private car. The Zonetransfers fare starts at €175 for the car and up to four people, and it does not move with traffic.


Brighton is where many visitors spend a few days by the sea before or after London. A private car from Heathrow skirts the capital on the M25 and drops you at your seafront hotel with the bags.

The transfer takes the M25 south and comes down the M23 and the A23 through the South Downs. In about 1 h 45 min the driver drops you on the seafront, in Kemptown or at the Marina.
