· 2 reviewsI used A&B Taxis last month (Feb) for a long distance journey. Excellent Taxi Driver (Tom). My journey was about 250 miles return trip. (2 separate journeys on different dates). I have used A&B previously, all with very positive experiences. Tom was punctual, his car was clean and he offered help with my bags.
Response from A&B Taxis
Lyn we really appreciate your excellent feedback and will pass your gratitude on to Tom. Thank you !<br>
