Official Chauffeur of Ascot

Ascot Racecourse
Ascot Racecourse, rich in history and Britain’s royal heritage, is a premier destination for horse racing and social events. Whether you are headed to Ascot for a raceday, to enjoy fine dining, or to attend a private function, enhance your experience with chauffeured journeys from Wheely, the Official Chauffeur of Ascot.
t

Distinguished fare classes are available for every occasion and group size. Chauffeurs graduated from the Wheely Chauffeur Academy deliver the highest standards of service in a discreet manner. 

Perfect Convenience

Ascot Racecourse hosts 21 racedays outside of Royal Ascot each year. Most of the racedays feature two enclosures: King Edward VII and Queen Anne.

For your convenience, you may select your preferred car park from an in-app list as the drop‑off or pick‑up location whilst booking your journey in the Wheely app by entering “Ascot Racecourse”. Car Park 3 is located closest to all enclosures. Car Park 2 is exclusively for owners and trainers. 

During Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup (Sunday 10th August), you may request our chauffeurs to pick you up at Car Park 1, the nearest car park to post-race concert.

Questions & Answers

Can I enjoy fixed-rate journeys if I have any stops between London and Ascot Racecourse?
The fixed rate only applies to non-stop journeys. If a journey includes any stops, the total cost will be calculated according to our standard fares.
Can I keep my chauffeur on standby during my day at Ascot Racecourse?
Wheely members are able to retain their chauffeurs for up to a full day at a convenient hourly rate. Simply select our “Chauffeur for a Day” service when making your booking through the Wheely app.
Do I need my guests to download the Wheely app if I book a journey for them through my account?
You can make separate concurrent bookings for your guests using the “Book for Another Person” feature in the Wheely app. If your guests do not have the app, they will still receive a text message with a link allowing them to view the journey details. Though we encourage guests to download the Wheely app themselves for more seamless interactions such as communicating with their chauffeur via the in-app chat if needed.
What do you provide with each Kids Class journey?
If you are attending with your family, our Kids Class includes one KidFix certified child safety seat. The child seat is suitable for a child who is aged from about 9 months to 12 years, weighing between 9 and 36 kg. Please select “Kids Class” when booking the journey.
How do I contact Wheely with additional questions or assistance?
Our support team is conveniently available by phone and chat 24/7 through the Wheely app.
