About this tour
When Charlie from our BugBitten team booked a private transfer between Toronto Pearson and London, Ontario, we found a straightforward, no-fuss option for that 90-minute drive. You're in your own vehicle—sedan, minivan, SUV, or minibus depending on group size—with cold water and air con thrown in. The flexibility to set your own pickup time and drop-off address beats rigid shuttle schedules, especially if you're landing at an odd hour or heading somewhere outside the city centre. Worth considering if you've got luggage, kids, or just want to skip the public transport shuffle.
Highlights
- Pick your own pickup time and drop-off address — no fixed routes
- Fleet covers solo travellers (sedan) through larger groups (minibus)
- Bottled water and air con standard in every vehicle
- Infant seats available, prams welcome — family-friendly setup
- Flat rate removes surprise surge pricing mid-journey
- Direct route means you're not looping through other stops
What to expect
Charlie booked this for a midweek afternoon pickup and found the driver arrived on time with a clean, cool vehicle. The route itself is straightforward highway — about 90 minutes to two hours depending on traffic around the airport and your final destination. No hidden detours or tourist stops; this is pure A-to-B transportation. If you're used to rideshare apps, the main difference is the private booking means one consistent driver and no surge pricing, which adds peace of mind when you're tired from a flight.
The drive from Pearson hugs the highway west toward London. Traffic around the airport can add time during rush hours, but once you're clear of the GTA it's pretty open. Our team appreciated not juggling luggage onto a shuttle or negotiating public transit connections with kids or a heap of bags. The inclusion of water mattered after a flight — small touches like that register when you're groggy.

Good to know
This works brilliantly if you're travelling with more than one person, have substantial luggage, or are landing outside standard business hours when taxis are unpredictable. The vehicle choice — sedan to minibus — scales to your group, and the ability to set your own pickup time removes the stress of catching a shuttle. Service animals are welcome, and they provide infant seats, so families with small kids avoid the hassle of bringing their own.
You're paying for privacy and convenience, so it's pricier than a shuttle or public transit. Parking fees aren't included, which matters if the driver needs to wait or if you're arranging a return pickup in a paid lot. The 90-minute drive is fairly numb on a highway — not scenic. Peak travel times (early morning, late evening) are busiest around Pearson, so factor in potential delays.
Standard luggage, phone charger, and any medical docs if travelling with infants.
