Tate Modern
London
Jacob Miles provides private chauffeur transfers to and from Tate Modern, the modern art gallery in the former Bankside Power Station on the South Bank. Our chauffeurs are experienced with traffic on the South Bank and will plan your route to avoid the worst of the congestion around the Thames and Blackfriars Bridge, collecting you from your home, hotel or office and delivering you close to the gallery.
Arriving at Tate Modern
Tate Modern sits on Bankside, between the Millennium Bridge and Blackfriars Bridge, facing the City across the Thames. The gallery is extremely popular and the surrounding South Bank is busy with visitors throughout the week, with very little parking in the area. A chauffeur-driven arrival lets you step out close to the gallery without navigating the crowded riverside or the Tube. The final collection point will depend on the area's traffic and access arrangements and will be confirmed with the passenger before travel.
Traffic and Timing
The South Bank is busy seven days a week, with peaks around lunchtime, late afternoon and on weekends, and major exhibitions draw large queues. The roads around Blackfriars Bridge, Southwark Bridge and the A201 can be slow at these times. We recommend booking your journey to arrive before the busiest periods and agreeing your collection time in advance.
Nearby Areas and Hotels
Tate Modern is in Bankside, close to Southwark, Borough and the City, and a short drive from the West End. Hotels we serve that are convenient for a visit to the gallery include The Savoy on the Strand, just across the river, and Corinthia London in Westminster. We can collect you from your hotel and return you there after your visit.
Airport and Station Connections
London City is a practical airport for short-haul travellers heading to Bankside, while Heathrow serves the principal international routes. London Bridge and Waterloo are the nearest mainline stations for the South Bank. We can combine an airport or station transfer with your onward journey to the gallery.
Recommended Vehicles
A visit to Tate Modern often ends with a stop at the shop, so a little extra space helps. The Mercedes E-Class or S-Class is a refined choice for individuals and couples, while the Mercedes V-Class suits families and small groups with room for bags and purchases. Let us know your party size when you book.
