Islington taxi and airport transfers

North London cabs, day and night

Islington stretches from Clerkenwell and the Angel up through Highbury and Holloway to Archway. Its narrow Georgian squares and busy Upper Street make driving yourself to the airport a chore, so an Islington taxi with a fixed fare is the easy way to reach any London airport.

Via the A501 Euston Road, the Westway and the M4, Heathrow is about 50 minutes to 1 hour away; see the [Heathrow airport taxi](/heathrow-airport-taxi/) page.

Islington to Gatwick

South through the City and over the Thames, then the A23 and M23. Allow around 1 hour 15 minutes; see [Gatwick airport transfers](/gatwick-airport-transfers/).
