Very easy to book via the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marys350 Posted October 23, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I found the following website helpful in comparing options for doing a transfer from Heathrow to Southampton for our cruise in 2024. https://www.londontoolkit.com/travel/heathrow_southampton.htm For our party of four, we decided to book a private transfer with Paragon Taxis, a company based in Southampton.

22cruise22 Posted October 24, 2023 #6 Share Posted October 24, 2023 We just completed Oceania Vista British Isles cruise Shouthampton to Southampton on 8/30/23. Excellent cruise. We used BA Transfers for a private car based on a recomendation and they were excellent. Email and phone confirmations and great communication from drivers. Used them for airport to hotel , hotel to Southampton cruise port and Southampton cruise port to Heathrow. It was 178 pounds from cruise port to heathrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare craig01020 Posted October 27, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I just used National Express bus 2 weeks ago. Inexpensive and fairly simple. https://www.nationalexpress.com/en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ombud Posted December 18, 2023 #12 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I used National Express Coach but then I only have 1 suitcase (23.5" with wheels) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs f. Posted December 18, 2023 #13 Share Posted December 18, 2023 We took the National Express Coach. Was easy once we figured out that the bus says what the LAST stop is and doesn't say Southampton. We each had a wheeled suitcase and backpack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beware of old information, routes were re-jigged some little while back. For buses from LHR to Southampton final destination now is PORTSMOUTH (The Hard) Route number 203 (which is also shown on the destination board) It's the same bus from Heathrow for cruises out of Portsmouth JB 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
