Heathrow Airport to London
Overview
Families flying into Heathrow rarely want to work out which train or taxi rank to head for after a long journey. Haqqi Tours covers the run from Heathrow Airport to London with a driver waiting inside your terminal's arrivals hall, name board in hand, tracking your flight so a delay changes nothing. You travel in a private Mercedes V-Class or Sprinter, never grouped with other passengers, and the price is a fixed number agreed with you on WhatsApp before you fly, in Arabic or English. Hotels across Mayfair, Knightsbridge and the wider city are all within reach, and the same car can collect you again for the trip back to Heathrow when you leave.

Route details
About the destination
London is one of the world's great capitals, a city where royal history, museums and green parks sit alongside modern skyscrapers and well-known shopping streets. Families from the Gulf come for Buckingham Palace and the Tower of London, for afternoon tea and for the department stores of Knightsbridge and Oxford Street, as much as for the theatres of the West End. Neighbourhoods range from the grand hotels of Mayfair to the riverside views around the Shard, and the city's parks, markets and museums keep visitors busy for days. English is spoken everywhere, and the city welcomes visitors from the Arab world in its hotels, restaurants and shops throughout the year.
