How the day runs

The car comes to your home in Croydon. An executive saloon is the usual choice for a pair. Leaving Croydon, the car picks up the A23 and keeps to the main roads. At Ascot Racecourse the car uses the drop-off point the organisers set for your ticket. While you are inside, the chauffeur waits nearby and is ready when you are. After the last of the day, it is about 58 minutes back to Croydon.
