Chauffeur Service for World Travel Market London
World Travel Market brings travel professionals, exhibitors, buyers, media and tourist boards from around the world to ExCeL London each November. The 2026 show runs from 3 to 5 November at ExCeL, on Western Gateway beside the Royal Victoria Dock in E16.
Three days of back-to-back meetings is a difficult schedule to run on public transport, particularly with stand materials or a stack of brochures. A pre-booked chauffeur gives you a car that is outside when your meeting finishes rather than a walk to the DLR at the end of each one.
Journeys can be booked individually or by the hour, with the same chauffeur across the show if you prefer.
Getting to ExCeL London
ExCeL sits in the Royal Docks in east London, a part of the city most visitors do not know and one that gets noticeably busier during a show of this size.
Typical drive times, traffic depending:
- London City Airport — about 10 minutes, the closest airport to the venue
- Central London hotels — usually 30 to 50 minutes
- Canary Wharf — around 15 minutes
- Heathrow — normally 60 to 95 minutes
- Gatwick — normally 75 to 110 minutes
Airport Transfers for World Travel Market Visitors
Most WTM attendees fly in, many of them from outside Europe and arriving the day before the show opens.
Your chauffeur monitors the flight, meets you inside the terminal with a name board and helps with luggage, which matters more than usual when you are travelling with exhibition materials as well as a suitcase. We cover Heathrow, Gatwick, London City, Luton and Stansted, along with the private aviation terminals.
Hotel to ExCeL Transfers
Many visitors stay in central London rather than near the venue, which means the same journey east and back on each of the three days.
A standing collection from your hotel each morning and a return at a time you set removes the daily negotiation with the Elizabeth line and the DLR. We collect from hotels across Mayfair, Knightsbridge, Westminster, the City, Canary Wharf and the Docklands hotels near the venue.
Hourly Chauffeur Hire for Exhibitors
Exhibitors have the longest days of the show: an early start on the stand, meetings off site, materials to move and evening events afterwards.
With hourly hire the car and chauffeur stay with you, so brochures, samples and coats live in the boot and a change of plan costs nothing but a word to the driver.
- Stand set-up and breakdown days
- Meetings away from the exhibition centre
- Press and buyer appointments
- Business lunches
- Evening receptions and industry dinners
Travelling Between Meetings
A full day at WTM is mostly meetings, and the gaps between them are when the actual work gets done.
A chauffeur-driven car is a quiet place to answer emails, take a call or read through a proposal before the next appointment, with Wi-Fi, bottled water and phone charging on board.
Corporate and Team Travel
Travel businesses often attend as a team, and moving together is simpler than six people making their own way east.
The Mercedes-Benz V-Class carries up to seven with luggage; for larger delegations we run several vehicles on one booking, invoiced to an account where that suits your finance team better than individual journeys.
Evening Events After the Show
WTM does not end when the halls close. Most evenings involve a reception, a dinner or a client meeting somewhere back in central London.
Your chauffeur can take you from ExCeL straight to the restaurant or venue and on to your hotel afterwards, which on a November evening in the Royal Docks is a better prospect than looking for a taxi.
Why Pre-Book Your WTM Chauffeur
The show draws tens of thousands of visitors into one part of east London for three days, and demand for cars there peaks at exactly the same hours for everybody.
- Early-morning collections before the halls open
- A car that waits rather than one you request in a queue
- Room for exhibition materials and luggage
- The same chauffeur across the three days, if you prefer
- Airport transfers either side of the show
- Reservations and changes handled 24/7
