Heathrow to Windsor in one direct journey
Heathrow is roughly 8 miles from Windsor. By road, allow around 20–30 minutes in typical conditions, making this one of the shortest transfers we offer from the airport.
There is no direct rail line between Heathrow and Windsor, so most public transport options involve a bus or a train with a change. A private transfer takes you directly from the airport to Windsor Castle, your hotel, or on to Legoland Windsor Resort.

The easiest option when there's no direct train to Windsor
Windsor is a major visitor destination, home to Windsor Castle, Windsor Great Park, Eton College and Legoland Windsor Resort, but Heathrow has no direct rail connection into the town, journeys by public transport usually mean a bus or a change of train.
A pre-booked car removes that extra leg entirely. You have one pickup, one vehicle and one destination to deal with, with your luggage travelling with you throughout the journey.
Going straight to Windsor Castle?
Book the Castle as your destination and travel directly from your Heathrow terminal.
Staying at a Windsor hotel?
Give us your hotel or full address rather than a general town-centre drop-off.
Continuing to Legoland?
Let us know when booking and we can arrange a multi-stop or onward journey.
Travelling with several bags?
Choose a vehicle with enough passenger and luggage capacity when you book.
