The journey between Gatwick and Hammersmith is roughly 30 miles by road, typically via the M23 and M25. In normal conditions allow about 40–60 minutes, though the real time depends on traffic, roadworks and the time of day. Because your fare is fixed, a longer run on the day costs you no more than the price you were quoted.
Hammersmith sits roughly to the north of Gatwick. By distance across all the areas we cover from Gatwick, this route is a fairly typical distance for one of our airport transfers — the 26th shortest of the 64 areas we cover from Gatwick, by road distance — useful context if you are weighing up Hammersmith against a nearby postcode for the same trip.
Distance and time are approximate, measured by road and intended as a guide only. For airport pickups we track your flight and time the journey to your landing, building in extra for traffic so you are not left waiting.
Gatwick lies to the south of London off the M23, with separate North and South terminals linked by a shuttle. It is the natural choice for south London and the South Coast, and we plan the run around the M23 and M25.
Hammersmith, in west London, is a riverside transport hub with its flyover, Tube interchange and the Apollo. Its position on the A4 corridor makes Heathrow runs quick and direct. We run fixed-fare transfers from Hammersmith to every airport, tracking your flight on the way back.
In everyday London speech, people say “taxi” for almost any hired car, but a licensed minicab is legally distinct from a black cab: it cannot be hailed on the street and must be booked in advance, with the driver and vehicle separately licensed for private hire. A pre-booked transfer like this one works on exactly that basis — agreed in advance, licensed throughout, with the fare fixed before you travel. On this specific route, Hammersmith lies to the north of Gatwick, a journey of around 30 miles — a fairly typical distance for one of our airport transfers compared with our other Gatwick routes, though the licensed, pre-booked model is identical whichever direction you are travelling.
the M23 and M25 are at their busiest on weekday mornings and early evenings around Gatwick to Hammersmith, as commuter traffic overlaps with airport and local trips. Early or late weekday journeys benefit from extra time in the schedule; quieter periods fall on evenings, weekends and school holidays. Whatever the traffic, your driver plans the route in advance and the fare does not change.
On the day, your driver confirms the pickup point in advance so there is no last-minute searching, and for airport legs the flight is tracked so the car is ready whether you land early or late. Allow the usual airport routine either side of the drive itself: security and check-in on the way out, and passport control or baggage reclaim on the way in, both of which our free waiting allowance already covers.
Mentioning your group size and luggage at booking, rather than on the day, means we bring the right car from the start — a saloon for four passengers and two large cases, or an estate, MPV or 8-seater when there is more to carry. Expect more demand for this kind of journey around school holidays and summer, so a little lead time helps when it comes to booking the right vehicle.
Booked this as a single taxi ride? The same fixed fare, driver and vehicle are available for more than one journey:

A company account for corporate airport travel.
Airport meet & greet, if you would rather be met inside arrivals.
A bigger group travelling together with minibus transfers.
Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
A day out further afield with a private tour.
