Minibus vs Multiple Taxis: What Works Out Cheaper?
For groups of 5 or more, a single minibus is almost always cheaper than booking two or three separate saloon cars. For a group of 6 heading to Heathrow, for example, one minibus fare is typically 30-40% less than three separate taxi fares, and everyone stays together.
Minibuses also make sense for luggage-heavy trips. A saloon car fits 2 large suitcases comfortably, but a family of 4 with holiday luggage may need an estate or minibus. Our booking team can advise on the right vehicle for your group size and luggage.
