To get from Heathrow to Leatherhead, you can take a taxi or pre-booked minicab, which can be more expensive than public transport options. A metered black cab from Heathrow to central London typically costs around £75 to £130, but since Leatherhead is outside of central London, the fare will likely be higher. A pre-booked minicab is usually cheaper, with fixed prices starting from around £45 to £75 to central London, but again, the fare to Leatherhead will depend on the distance and traffic.
Public Transport Options
For a more affordable option, you can take the public transport from Heathrow to London and then connect to a train or bus to Leatherhead. The Piccadilly line Tube from Heathrow to central London costs around £5.60 with contactless, and from there, you can take a train from London Waterloo or Victoria to Leatherhead.
Taxi and Private Hire
If you prefer a door-to-door service, you can take a taxi or pre-booked minicab from the official ranks outside each terminal's arrivals hall. The official ranks are marshalled, and you can choose from a metered black cab or a pre-booked minicab.
- Metered black cabs have a minimum fare of £4.40 and charge progressively more per mile, with a rank surcharge of about £1.60 and a £7 drop-off charge.
- Pre-booked minicabs are usually cheaper, with fixed prices starting from around £45 to £75 to central London, and often include meet-and-greet and flight tracking.
Booking in Advance
To ensure availability and get the best price, it's recommended to book your taxi or minicab in advance. You can also check the airport's official website for more information on travel options and prices.
