For guests arriving at Tobacco Dock for events, weddings and celebrations, the journey in from the airport is exactly where a fixed-fare, pre-booked transfer earns its place. Tobacco Dock sits on quieter dockland streets in Wapping where late-night transport can be patchy, with the ULEZ in force and events often running late. A RushXO transfer takes the whole problem off your hands: met in arrivals after a tracked flight, driven directly to the door, with every toll already built into a price locked at the moment you book — no queue with luggage, no cross-city connection, no surge-priced app after a long flight.

Tobacco Dock is at Tobacco Quay, Wapping Lane, Wapping, E1W 2SF.

We deliver you door-to-door to the exact entrance you need, and run the return to any airport on the same fixed-fare basis.

We set you down at the Wapping Lane entrance, and a pre-booked pick-up means a car is waiting when the event ends, with no surge late at night from a quieter part of town.
With limited parking around the venue, a door-to-door drop-off that pulls in, unloads and leaves is the easiest way to arrive — especially in event dress or coordinating a group. Give us the full details at booking and we plan the approach around it.

A Fixed Fare With No Surge, Ever
On-demand apps surge exactly when you most need to travel — early mornings, late nights, holidays and bad weather, which is precisely when guests and event-goers travel. A RushXO fare does the opposite: calculated on genuine road distance, quoted as a single fixed figure at booking, and never altered.
About Tobacco Dock — Your Destination
Tobacco Dock is a Grade I listed Georgian warehouse in Wapping, built in 1812 and now one of London's largest event venues, hosting conferences, festivals and parties for up to 10,000 across its vaults, quays and the Skylight rooftop bar. It sits in the ULEZ on quieter dockland streets, so a door-to-door transfer is the easiest way to arrive and leave.
Arriving for Your Event
The venue sits on quieter dockland streets where late-night transport can be patchy, and events here often run well into the night. Whether you are arriving for a wedding, a gala dinner, an awards evening or a corporate conference, the journey is far simpler in one vehicle than split across the Underground with its stairs and changes. A single RushXO saloon, executive car or MPV carries your whole party and luggage door-to-door for one fixed fare. For families travelling together we can arrange several vehicles on the same basis, and child seats and boosters are provided free on request.
Travel Safely — Pre-Booked, Licensed, Accountable
A pre-booked RushXO transfer is named and identifiable to you in advance: your driver 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.
