The Royal Parks Half Marathon, held every October, takes runners through four of London's royal parks and past some of the city's most famous landmarks. It is a brilliant race, but race morning can be stressful, especially when it comes to getting to the start on time with your kit. A chauffeur takes that worry away.
Our London Chauffeur Service has cars to suit every runner and support team, including the Mercedes V-Class, S-Class, E-Class and Range Rover. A calm, comfortable car is a good place to prepare, so you can focus on your run.
Easy, Stress-Free Race Day Travel
Race day logistics can be tricky, with road closures, early starts and crowds. A chauffeur makes it simple.
Our chauffeurs get you to the start in plenty of time, with no worries about traffic, parking or closed roads. You arrive calm and ready to race.
If you are running with friends or a team, we can carry the whole group together in one car or several.
Chauffeurs Who Know Race Day
It is not just about the car. Our chauffeurs are experienced and understand how race day works.
They know the road closures and the best routes to the start and finish, and they keep the car calm and quiet so you can relax and focus. Whether it is an early pickup or a ride home after the race, they make it easy.
Planned Around You
Every runner's race day is different. We plan your transport around your start time, your wave and any extra stops you need.
Why Book a Chauffeur for the Royal Parks Half?
A chauffeur is not just convenient. It makes the whole race day better. Here is why:
1. No Travel Stress
No traffic, parking or navigation worries. Just a smooth journey to the start.
2. Comfort
A comfortable, quiet car to relax in before the race and recover in afterwards.
3. Punctuality
Your chauffeur gets you there on time, so you can think about your pace, not the clock.
4. A Service That Fits You
Choose your pickup time, add stops and plan the day your way.
5. Looked After All Day
From the morning pickup to the ride home, you are looked after from start to finish.
Early Morning Pickups, Always on Time
The Royal Parks Half starts early in the morning in Hyde Park, and runners need to reach the start village well before the gun to drop bags and warm up. Our chauffeurs arrive 15 minutes ahead of schedule, however early the pickup. Whether you are leaving a central London hotel at 6am or a home in the suburbs, your race day starts calmly.
Post-Race Pickups for Runners and Supporters
After 13.1 miles through Hyde Park, Green Park, St James's Park and Kensington Gardens, the last thing you want is a crowded Tube in your race kit. Your chauffeur collects you near the finish and drives you straight to your hotel or home. There is water in the car and plenty of room for kit bags, and supporters can be collected at the same time for one journey home.
Group Transport for Running Clubs and Teams
The Royal Parks Half is popular with charity and corporate teams. We coordinate group transport for running clubs and teams, with shared pickups from a common meeting point and return cars timed around different finish times. For charity teams with lots of supporters, we can also help supporters reach good viewing points. Group bookings have one dedicated contact who plans everything in advance.
Chauffeurs for Races Across the UK
We also provide race day chauffeurs for other major UK events, including the London Marathon, the Brighton Marathon, the Manchester Marathon and the Great North Run. Runners who race through the season can benefit from multi-event packages with better rates and guaranteed cars. If you find a comparable race day transfer at a lower price, we will refund 100% of the difference.
