Navigating Oxford and its charming surroundings is straightforward with Royal Cars, a well-established taxi service operating 24/7. As Oxford's largest private hire provider, they boast an extensive fleet of over 600 vehicles, including standard cabs, executive cars, people carriers, and minibuses suitable for groups of up to 16. This means whether you need a quick trip for shopping, a comfortable ride for a night out, or transport for a larger group with luggage, they have options available. They cater to local runs within the city and surrounding villages, as well as long-distance journeys and airport transfers to all major UK airports. For added convenience, bookings can be made via their single-tap app, which also allows you to track your cab.
Royal Cars has been a family-run business since 1991 and emphasizes a professional, timely, and convenient service. They offer fixed fares for airport transfers, ensuring no surprise costs. For visitors requiring accessible transport, wheelchair-friendly vehicles are part of their diverse fleet, and they can also provide child seats upon request for a small charge. Committed to the community and passenger safety, their drivers are DBS checked, and they are in the process of installing CCTV in all their vehicles. With a significant portion of their fleet being hybrid and the introduction of fully electric vehicles, they are also focused on providing a greener transport option in Oxfordshire.

Warning for anyone who prebooks a taxi and assumes it will show up when you need it! There was no warning from Royal Cars when I prebooked that a driver would not be there when I had scheduled (it was also for 8:15 am, not in the middle of the night). If I had been notified earlier that it would not be possible to be picked up then, I would have made other plans. Hoping for more transparency in the future!
Taxi driver that showed up in the end was very nice but operator service is clearly a shambles.
Obviously the company has made NO EFFORTS to improve its service despite the negative feedback provided here (what’s the point of offering an email to complain to I ask?).
Royal Cars was completely unapologetic on the phone. They did nothing to solve my problem. A stunning lack of professionalism and empathy.
