The run from Wimbledon to Epsom Downs Racecourse covers about 11.4 miles and is quoted as a fixed price from £45. Reckon on 30 min when the roads are clear and up to 45 min at busy times. Drivers come in via M25 J8/J9, then A24 and Epsom Downs, reaching Epsom Downs Racecourse from the due north. The price is agreed when you book, so it does not move with the meter, the traffic or the time of night.
A pre-booked taxi from Wimbledon to Epsom Downs Racecourse costs from £45 for up to 4 passengers and takes about 30 min off-peak, covering roughly 11.4 miles. The price is fixed before you travel and includes tolls, waiting time and luggage.

From Wimbledon (SW19, SW20) the natural line out is the A219 and the A3, joining M25 J8/J9, then A24 and Epsom Downs for the last part of the journey. The whole thing runs to about 11.4 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 30 min off-peak becomes 45 min when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
The Grandstand entrance or Tattenham Corner, depending on your enclosure. On Derby Day the Downs roads are closed and marshalled, so the meeting point is fixed at the Grandstand or Tattenham Corner.
Address: Epsom Downs, Epsom, KT18 5LQ.
Pickups cover the whole of Wimbledon and the SW19, SW20 districts across South West London. Home, office, hotel or station - the driver comes to the door and helps with bags.
Wimbledon pickups take in all of SW19, SW20. Controlled parking and one-way systems are the driver's problem, not yours - they will text the nearest legal stopping point.
Doors are usually an hour before the raceday starts. Allowing 45 min for the drive from Wimbledon plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night.
The return is the leg worth planning. Everyone leaves Epsom Downs Racecourse at once, so a car booked to wait at the agreed point gets you moving while the queue is still forming - same £45 back to Wimbledon.
A saloon is from £45, an estate from £55, a 6-seat MPV from £65 and an 8-seat minibus from £85. The price is fixed when you book and covers the whole journey.
It is about 30 min off-peak over roughly 11.4 miles. Allow up to 45 min in peak traffic or around a busy raceday.
The Grandstand entrance or Tattenham Corner, depending on your enclosure. The driver texts you the exact spot and their registration before they arrive.
