A fixed-fare taxi from London to St Mary's Stadium - door-to-door for Southampton FC matchdays, events and concerts, with no surge and a wait-and-return so the same chauffeur brings you home. Travel as a couple or a whole supporters' group in one comfortable vehicle down the M3, arrive relaxed, and skip the rail fares and changes.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before pickup
Getting from London to St Mary's Stadium in Southampton for a Southampton FC fixture, a midweek game or an event is a steady run down the M3 - but trains can be pricey on the day and the late service back leaves you waiting around after a night game. A single RushXO vehicle carries your whole party door-to-door for one fixed fare, drops you near the ground, and - with the wait-and-return - is ready to drive you home the moment it ends. No surge, no scramble, no parking to find.
Saloon from £150 · ~80 mi · ~1h45 · door-to-door · wait-and-return option · up to 8 in one minibus · one fixed fare · no surge · 24/7 · 4.9★ from 4,850 patrons
We plan your pickup around kick-off or doors-open with a buffer for the M3 and Southampton matchday traffic, so you arrive in good time without the rail lottery.
Book the return and the same driver waits, then collects you after full-time for a direct run home - far easier than the late train back to London.
The price is set at booking for the whole vehicle, with no surge and no event-day premium - and for a group it often beats a set of advance rail tickets.
Fares below are fixed one-way between London and St Mary's Stadium, and include tolls and a 60-minute free wait at collection. Ask for a return or wait-and-return quote at booking.

From central London the driver heads south-west on the M3, the main corridor down to Hampshire, then the M27 and the Southampton approaches to St Mary's, which sits just east of the city centre near the River Itchen. It is a largely uninterrupted motorway run; the M3 around the J12 and the M27 are the main variables, so we plan matchday pickups with a sensible buffer and track live traffic.
The stadium is a short hop off the M27 into the city, so the final approach is quick - and the wait-and-return saves you the late-night service back to London.

St Mary's Stadium has been the home of Southampton FC since 2001 and sits just east of the city centre near the River Itchen (SO14), holding around 32,000 and also hosting concerts and events. While it is reachable by rail via Southampton Central, big fixtures put pressure on the late service back to London - which is exactly why a pre-booked, fixed-fare car with a wait-and-return is one of the calmest ways to arrive and to get home afterwards.
We collect from every London borough and postcode - central, the City, Canary Wharf, the suburbs and beyond - at the time the journey actually needs to leave for the kick-off or doors-open time you give us. You tell us the address and the event; we handle the routing, the timing and the tolls. Book the wait-and-return and the same driver is ready to take you home when it ends, or we can arrange an overnight stay for a late finish.
A pre-booked RushXO transfer means your driver is named and identifiable in advance, holds an enhanced DBS check as a condition of their TfL Private Hire licence, and operates a fully insured, logged vehicle. You receive the driver's name, number and the vehicle's make, model and registration before pickup. A female chauffeur can be requested for lone or late-night travellers, at no surcharge.

"Drove us from London to St Mary's for a Saturday game. Smooth run down the M3, fixed price agreed in advance, and the driver waited and brought us home - no late-train wait."
"Six of us to Southampton in one minibus from London. Spotless vehicle, price fixed up front, and the wait-and-return meant no scramble for the last train. Cheaper than singles too."
"Away day to Southampton sorted door to door. Driver timed the pickup around kick-off, the fixed fare didn't move, and the same car took us back to London. Faultless."
