Is this a black cab or Private Hire?

Licensed Private Hire only — all journeys must be pre-booked. We are not a hackney carriage and cannot be flagged down or pick up from taxi ranks. Operator licence held with Buckinghamshire Council.

Do I pay for the return journey?

For one-way long-distance bookings the quoted fare includes a contribution toward the empty return — that's already built in. If you'd like the driver to wait and bring you back the same day, ask for a wait-and-return quote and we'll price it as a single round trip.

What vehicles are available for long journeys?

Estate (4 passengers, 3 cases) or estate car (4 passengers, larger boot for extra luggage). Both are inspected and insured for hire & reward across the UK.

When people book long distance with us

Long-distance Private Hire from Aylesbury is most often booked for holiday cottages (Cornwall, Lake District, Wales), Channel ports and Eurotunnel, hospital transfers to specialist centres (Harley Street, Stoke Mandeville onward referrals), university drop-offs in September, and one-off business meetings where the train isn't practical.

The most common reason a long journey makes sense by taxi is door-to-door with luggage — the calculation is rarely "is it cheaper than the train?", it's "is it cheaper than train + taxi each end + the hassle of changes with two suitcases and a child?" For families and older passengers it usually is.

Typical destinations from Aylesbury

We regularly cover: Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Newcastle, Bristol, Exeter, Plymouth, Cornwall (Newquay, St Ives), the Lake District (Windermere, Ambleside), North Wales, the Cotswolds, Cambridge, Norwich, Dover, Folkestone, Eurotunnel Folkestone, Portsmouth and Southampton cruise terminals, and London hospitals. If it's on the UK mainland, we'll quote for it.

How the fixed quote works

Send us pickup postcode, destination postcode, date and rough time, number of passengers and luggage. We'll come back within an hour with one all-in price covering driver time, fuel, tolls, the return leg and any reasonable wait. No meter, no surge, no surprise extras at the door. Cash to driver, card, or bank transfer — your choice.

One-way vs wait-and-return

One-way is the default — the quoted fare includes a contribution toward the empty return leg, so you only pay for one direction. Wait-and-return is a single round-trip quote where the driver stays with the car (useful for hospital appointments, business meetings, theatre nights or short visits). Wait-and-return is usually cheaper than booking two separate one-ways.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a long-distance taxi from Aylesbury?

Fixed quote per journey rather than per-mile. Send your pickup and destination postcodes via the booking form — we confirm an all-in price within an hour. No meter, no traffic surcharge, no surprise extras.

Are you a Private Hire taxi or a black cab?

Licensed Private Hire (PHV) only. Every journey is pre-booked through our office — we cannot accept street hails or rank pick-ups. Operator and driver licences held with Buckinghamshire Council. Fully insured for hire-and-reward UK-wide.

What's the furthest you'll go?

UK mainland — anywhere from a 30-mile hop to a 400+ mile run to Cornwall, the Lake District or the Scottish border. We also cover Dover, Folkestone, Eurotunnel and Portsmouth/Southampton cruise terminals.

Do I have to pay for the empty return leg?

For one-way bookings the quoted fare already includes a contribution toward the empty return — there's nothing extra to pay. Wait-and-return is priced as a single round trip and is typically cheaper than two one-ways.

What if I cancel?

Cancel 24 hours+ before pickup and there's no charge. Inside 24 hours we may charge a small cancellation fee on long-distance bookings (because we've turned other work away for the slot) — this is always confirmed in your booking email so there are no surprises.
