Booking a Taxi
The easiest and fastest way to get to your accommodation from the airport is by taxi, especially if you have luggage and other carry-on items. Listed below, you’ll find contact details for the most popular local taxi companies used by our students. These companies all offer airport pick up services and can be booked online by sending them our booking template – please book in advance to confirm your pick-up time and location.
Please note, this service is not free.
It is advisable to:
- Use the form here to make bookings via email as you would have proof of booking and they will send you confirmation via email as well.
- Please print the taxi confirmation that has the pickup details and phone numbers that you can contact when you arrive.
- You can choose to pay by cash or card, please confirm with the taxi company what mode of payment you would like to use. Please note cards from other countries sometimes cannot be used in the UK so prepare some cash for emergency.
- If you are unable to download the form please include this information when you make booking via email: your name, contact no (overseas and UK if you have), email, arrival date, arrival time, pick up airport, terminal, flight number, your accommodation address (full address and postcode), total number of people, total big luggage and small luggage. If you need a bigger taxi please let the taxi company knows.

Other Ways To Get To Campus
If you would rather make your own way to the campus, trains and bus services that will take you to Canterbury, Epsom, Farnham or Rochester are available, this will probably take longer than travelling by taxi and may involve changing trains, buses and walking, depending on your route. If you have big bags and luggage with you it is probably not convenient to travel with public transport.
Please remember: Face covering are mandatory for UK public transport
