Southampton has the busiest cruise port in the UK and is home to the second largest container terminal in the UK.
It is a key distribution point for many different goods coming into Britain, and is close to the main international shipping lanes. It is less than 100 nautical miles from mainland Europe, and has 17 hours of high water a day due to a unique double-tide. This means that there can be more ships entering the port and departing from it during one day than at any other port in the country.
During the years in between the two World Wars, Southampton handled almost half of the passenger traffic in the UK. It is still home to many luxury cruise ships, and as such has people of all ages, statues and background entering the country here.
If you are coming into or departing from Southampton Docks for a cruise or any other reason, you should consider chauffeur hire to complete your luxury experience. That way you won’t have to worry about where to leave your car whilst you’re away, how to get there or indeed trying to find public transport.
A range rover chauffeur driven car would be a great solution: spacious, sturdy and snazzy, this vehicle will make you feel like you’re given the royal treatment. The chauffeur will help you with your bags, and will pick you up or drop you off to your destination.
