The Championships are the oldest tennis tournament in the world and the only Grand Slam still played on grass. Staged at the All England Club in south-west London (SW19), the fortnight fills hotels across the capital and puts real pressure on local roads.
Most visitors arrive through Heathrow or Gatwick. On a quiet day the journey to SW19 is straightforward; on match days the roads around the club are managed and the nearest Underground stations, Southfields and Wimbledon Park, are at their busiest. A pre-booked chauffeur removes the guesswork: your driver tracks your flight, meets you in arrivals and plans the final approach around the conditions on the day.
If you are landing before play begins, add airport meet & greet so you are escorted through the terminal, and arrange your London chauffeur service for the days that follow.
Planning tips
- Book your transfer as soon as your flights are fixed. Peak-fortnight availability goes first.
- Allow more time than a normal London journey on match days, particularly for the last mile to the grounds.
- Agree the drop-off and pick-up point with your chauffeur in advance, and keep a flexible pick-up window for the end of play: matches can run long.
- Check whether your tickets or hospitality package already include transport before you book separately.
Frequently asked questions
How far is Wimbledon from Heathrow?
Roughly 15 miles by road. Allow around an hour in normal traffic, and more at peak times and on match days.
Can my chauffeur wait while I watch the match?
Hourly hire is available, but access and parking near the grounds are restricted on match days, so most guests arrange a drop-off and a pre-agreed pick-up point and time. Tell us what you need and we will advise on what works.
