Extremely good service reliable and Neat cars Always Highly recommended
Ahsan Zaheer 05 20 Oct 2023We were looking for a reliable taxi service to get us back and forth between Brunswick and Warrandyte for a wedding and Yarra Valley Taxis were absolutely excellent! They arrived slightly early for both rides, and both drivers were very professional, friendly and drove well. Worth mentioning we were from abroad and it was still super easy to book over the phone and we received communication from the drivers via text message.
Christine Mathiesen 25 Mar 2025This company were able to organise a driver in less than 30 minutes. Great service and very efficient. Driver was friendly. Highly recommend them!! Thank you, so much Mandy.
Suite18 28 Feb 2026Recently used these guys to get to and from a wedding. Wanted to have it booked in so I initially used the form on their website, unfortunately didn't receive a response so several days late I sent in email. They responded to that promptly to that and were able to book both the pick up and return trip. was initially nervous if they would show up but the experience was positive the drivers were friendly and arrived on time, overall I couldn't fault the experience
