Minicabs and taxis in West Wickham are an important part of the local ambiance and act as a vital transportation link for the locals and tourists alike. Were you aware that there are two kinds of taxis: the very well known and famous Black Cabs and the Mini Cabs, who are not so famous, but less expensive and quite commonly seen around the local area?
The black cabs are quite popular, but they aren't "all" black. Many are quite colourful with ads on them. All the cabs operate in the local West Wickham area and know the surrounding towns like Hayes, Beckenham, Croydon, Bromley etc very well. In fact, many of them also offer special deals for going to Gatwick or Heathrow when that next holiday arrives. Simply take some time looking at the ones listed below and give them a call. Alternatively, if you're around town and you see one driving past you, all you need to do is raise your hand in the air to stop them. Black cab drivers have extensive knowledge of the areas they serve and in fact are required to take a very strict knowledge test before they get a license. They have to know every possible street and route, all the hotels, tourist attractions, churches, theatres, train stations, hospitals etc.
The alternative cab ride is a mini cab, often less expensive, but not always licensed and they do not need to know everything the Black cab drivers know. Searching for West Wickham minicabs or taxis may turn up a mini cab first, as they move in different parts of the city searching for passengers.
