What to expect
You'll be collected from Heathrow in a spacious, climate-controlled minibus and travel southwest towards the Hampshire coast. The journey typically takes under two hours. If you've opted for the Netley Abbey detour, you'll stop to explore the 13th-century monastery ruins set within parkland—a quiet contrast to airport bustle.
