Our days are filled with providing taxi services to interesting people and companies. One such was our recent client Zibrant. They offer offer end-to-end event solutions including: accommodation solutions, event management, event production, group travel management, motivational programs, meeting management, venue finding, and video production.

This week we provided taxi services to a group of 6 Zibrant representatives. We provided them with our comfortable Mercedes Vito First Class Taxi Service for an entire day. They traveled around Central London in style and comfort while they were looking at potential event venues for their clients.

Zibrant’s motto is “The Experience is Everything,” and we couldn’t agree more. Like them, we want our customers to experience an efficient, professional, and hassle-free service from beginning to end.

For Event Management companies like Zibrant, here at London Black Taxis we offer several services of value. Please see our Event Management Liaison page.

Travel Agents, we can liaise with you to give your clients an enjoyable and memorale trip around London or to help them with their train, flight, or seaport connections.

Here are some examples of our recent work

For JAC Travel Group, we supplied 22 taxis to transport 108 tourists from Harrods to Madame Tussauds. We also supplied a Taxi Marshal who kept everything under control.

This lovely and lively bunch of Hungarian tourists wanted to experience a ride in a London Black Taxi! Russ, our Chief Taxi Marshal, met the travel agent and her group at a prearranged location outside of Harrods where they had been shopping in true London style. Russ assisted everyone into their waiting taxis and off they went to see Michael Jackson and Amy Winehouse at Madame Tussauds London.

For Bath Travel, we supplied 3 taxis to transport their clients from Victoria Rail Station (where they had just alighted from the famed Orient Express). Members of this group were going to three different destinations: some to London Heathrow Terminal 1, some to London Heathrow Terminal 5, and some back to their home in Surrey. No problem–we will go wherever your clients need to go.

Our “First Class” Mercedes Vito Service

Your clients desiring to travel in First Class luxury, may be interested in our “First Class” Mercedes Vito Service. Our Mercedes Vito taxis are also perfect for larger groups as they can accomodate 6 passengers plus luggage. Our Mercedes Vito taxis operate under the same tariff as our standard London Black taxis.

Do you need a safe way to get your “precious cargo” to school and activities? Longer distances to school, dance classes, sporting events, music lessons, scout meetings … they all add to the stress of busy parents like you.

London Black Taxis to the rescue! Our “Meet & Greet – Safe Conduct” and “School Run” services are perfect for your needs.

We can even arrange a shared school run, so that the cost can be shared between families.

For extra security, you can give us a “password” (which we will advise our driver of) so that you can be assured that the correct driver & taxi is picking up your child.

Here is what our customer Ann has to say:

The “Meet and Greet – Safe Conduct” Black Taxi service has literally changed my life. As a busy working Mum I was having huge difficulties collecting my daughter from swim-training in the evenings whilst trying to get the baby ready for bed. It was impossible to be in two places at the same time. Now Chris picks my daughter up after swimming and brings her home for me. He is always on time, I have no worries whatsoever about my daughter’s safety, and she loves it because he has a television in the cab which we don’t have in the car! Brilliant!!!! Many many thanx. –Ann 22nd May 2010

We charge no extra fees for our “Meet & Greet – Safe Conduct” and “School Run” services. [All journeys are subject to our Terms and Conditions.]

Get in touch with us if you need your children safely taken to school or an activity on a one-time or regular basis. We will be happy to help.

We were delighted and very proud to be asked by the Cluster Munition Coalition to provide transportation for Branislav Kapetanovic recently. We provided taxi services to and from Heathrow Airport and to various destinations where Bransislav gave talks about his experiences and about the Cluster Munition Coalition.

Branislav Kapetanovic (born 1965) lost both hands and feet when a BLU 97 submunition exploded when he was going to destroy it at an airstrip in Serbia November 9, 2000. Branislav was a deminer working for the Army and cleared thousands of submunitions after the NATO bombing before one of them finally exploded. His greatest wish now is to see cluster munitions banned, and he is now active in the Cluster Munition Coalition.

“Cluster bombs present a greater danger for the civilian population than for the Army or “enemy” installations, they affect wide areas and continue to affect them for many, many years; I don’t expect anybody to be surprised by what happened to me – it was my duty, my job, but the majority of the people in the world being injured by these bombs are innocent civilians, a large percentage of them unknowing children.”

The Cluster Munition Coalition is an international civil society campaign working to eradicate cluster munitions, prevent further casualties from these weapons and put an end for all time to the suffering they cause. The Coalition works through its members to change the policy and practice of governments and organisations towards these aims and raise awareness of the problem amongst the public.

On 1 August, Cluster Munition Coalition (CMC) members worldwide took part in coordinated campaign actions to celebrate the historic milestone presented by the entry into force (EIF) of the Convention on Cluster Munitions. Globally, events and actions were built around the slogan, “Beat the drum to ban cluster bombs!”

The Convention on Cluster Munitions – the most significant disarmament and humanitarian treaty since the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty – enters into force and becomes fully legally binding on 1 August 2010. From that date forward, states parties must implement all of the treaty’s lifesaving obligations.

Here at London Taxi Cabs, we greatly admire the work of Branislav Kapetanovic and the CMC and were privileged to be of help in some small way.

London Taxi Cabs was pleased and very proud to be asked to supply licensed London taxi marshals for an event taking place on Wednesday 12th May at The Victoria and Albert Museum.

There were over 250 guests present, each requiring a taxi after the event. As part of the service, our Taxi Share Scheme enabled the Marshals to place up to 5 or 6 passengers in the same taxi, thus reducing waiting times and allowing the passengers to share the fare.

Even though guests were heading out in all directions–some home, some to restaurants for late suppers–our experienced Marshals organised everthing smoothly. Everything went like clockwork with no one waiting longer than two minutes for their taxi.

Another successful marshaling event organised by London Taxi Cabs.

When you book your loved one to travel by themselves, we know that you want to make sure that they are safe and have an enjoyable trip. We offer a specialty “Meet & Greet – Safe Conduct” service for just that reason.

Our specialty “Meet & Greet – Safe Conduct” service ensures the safety of your loved one who needs to travel by taxi. This service is perfect for anyone who needs a little extra TLC when traveling:

• Children traveling alone (unaccompanied minor)
• Teenagers
• Young adults, such as University students
• Elderly
• Disabled
• Anyone unfamiliar with London
• Anyone traveling for the first time

How It Works

When you book the taxi, we will provide you with the driver’s name, mobile (cell) phone number, and the taxi’s vehicle registration number (license plate number). We will also give the driver your loved one’s mobile phone number, so that they can communicate and easily find each other. (If your loved one is not carrying a mobile phone, we will keep in contact with you from our central office.)

If we are picking up your loved one from an airport, we continually check the flight arrival details in order to calculate the exact arrival time. We can also pickup from a rail station, hotel, school or university, private residence, or anywhere else you designate.

We will meet your loved one at a pre-arranged location (such as the aiport’s Arrivals Hall or rail station’s meeting point) with their name clearly written on a name board.

We will then escort them to their taxi, helping with any luggage, and safely and efficiently deliver them to their destination.

Here is what some recent customers had to say

2nd July 2009
THANK YOU, for taking care of our daughter. (You picked up our daughter on July first and took her to her dorm.)

You provided excellent service. She was extremly tired and we feel bad that she forgot to give her driver a tip for helping her with her bags. Is there some place that we could mail or give him his tip?

Thanks again for everything, you guys are great.

Mr. & Mrs. J. (from Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A.)

27th June 2009
Hello Mike,

Thanks again,

It’s official! London Taxi Cabs has delivered its first baby to Mrs Aniko Nagyne Vig.
He was born on 10th March at 19.49pm and weighed in at 3.5kg and 54cm.

We were telephoned early in the morning and asked if we took heavily pregnant women to hospital to have their babies. I explained that all of our licensed London taxi drivers are equipped with a bucket of piping hot water and white towels. [Just kidding!]

Naturally, we pulled out all the stops and hopefully didn’t go through any red traffic lights.
We managed to get Mrs Aniko Nagyne Vig to St Thomas’s hospital in time to have her baby son.

Although baby “Adam” was born several weeks premature all is well and mother and son are now home and doing well.

Holding a Treasure Hunt event in London?

Phone +44 (0)7779 336 612 and lend some luxury and style to your treasure hunt with one of our Licensed London Taxi Cabs.

Your guests can travel around London in safety and comfort, collecting their clues with the help of one of our knowledgeable and friendly drivers.

Our Drivers

Our Treasure Hunt drivers are also Taxi Marshals–skilled and experienced at organising groups of people at PR events. They will help you to keep things under control and keep your guests safe.

Our Treasure Hunt drivers are also experienced London Tour Guides. And no one knows London better than a London Taxi Cab driver!

Our drivers love to join the fun and interact with your guests to make your Treasure Hunt event as enjoyable and memorable as possible.

Our Taxis

We can provide either the traditional London Taxi Cab or a Mercedes Vito Taxi Cab:

The Traditional London Taxi Cab has that traditional London look that we are all so familiar with. These taxi cabs seat a maximum of 5 adults (children count as “1/2 adult” but note that the taxi cab has only 5 seat belts).

The Mercedes Vito Taxi Cab has the truly comfortable ride that you expect from any Mercedes. They are equipped with two 12V power points enabling powered use of laptops and mobile telephones. These taxi cabs seat a maximum of 6 adults (children count as “1/2 adult” but note that the taxi cab has only 6 seat belts). We supply Mercedes Vito Taxi Cabs at the same price as our Traditional London Taxi Cab.

Celebrate!

Make your treasure hunt a celebratory event! Feel free to provide your guests with a goodies hamper. We don’t mind if they munch and sip their way around London. Just remember to toss a few crumbs to the driver to keep his strength up!

Our Services

We can provide either:

• or a Complete Treasure Hunt Package

Complete Treasure Hunt Packages

Let us organise everything for you:

• We will brief your guests about the Treasure Hunt and explain the “rules”.
• We will provide your guests with a London Treasure Hunt pack containing a booklet of clues and an answer sheet.
• We can, if you choose, provide a goodies hamper full of snacks and drinks.
• We can, if you choose, suggest or even arrange the restaurant booking for the last location on the Treasure Hunt. You can keep this location secret from your guests to provide a real surprise at the end or you can reveal the location to them to give them an extra incentive! If you are not familiar with London’s restaurants, you might find this part of our service valuable.

Pick-ups and Drop-offs

We will pick-up your guests at any central London location that you specify. (Pick-ups outside of central London can be arranged. An extra charge may apply depending on the location.)

We will deliver your guests at the end of the Treasure Hunt to any central London location that you specify. (Drop-offs outside of central London can be arranged. An extra charge may apply depending on the location.) The last location on the Treasure Hunt is the likely drop-off point, usually a restaurant where your guests can celebrate and compare their Tales of the Hunt.
