Fantastic service, couldn't ask for more. We spent 4 days on the island without a car and were able to pre-book all of our trips with TJ's. Always prompt on arrival, charged fairly and fantastic, courteous drivers (George in particular was an absolute star). We also had to make a few alterations to our bookings on the fly and this was no trouble. Thanks Terry and team.

He agreed to get up at an even earlier time than he had planned, to take us to the IoW challenge (5am) eeeek! Thank you for that 🙏Very large clean vehicle. Even let us choose the music for the ride, which got us geared up for the event! Turned up early, exactly at the time he said and got us there quickly. Lovely man too.

Phoned to make a booking, unfortunately couldn't make the time I requested but gave a alternative time that they could. An hour before my booking they phoned to say they could squeeze me in between bookings which was closer to the time I originally wanted.Understanding how busy it was in cowes I really appreciated that they bared me in mind.Taxi arrived, was impressed how clean it was inside and out. The driver got out his vehicle to open the door which is very rare! Driver was friendly, someone with a good sense of humour.Would highly recommend and can understand why they are constantly busy!

We were stuck in Cowes with 2 people and 2 bikes (one unridable) needing to return to Newport. We were directed to TJs as they have vans. We’re so glad we did…great speedy service and extremely helpful.

We recently had a holiday in the Isle of Wight and our Daughter arrived after us, very late in the night. TJ allowed me to pre-book a taxi several weeks in advance, to give us some reassurance that she'd be safe on her arrival, (I might add she is an adult but a Mother never stops worrying)! They didn't overcharge, they turned up, as planned, and the lovely guy who was driving made sure she got to the exact tent we were staying in, before leaving her. We have used them several times since, whilst on the island, and I can't fault them. Terry, who's business it is, has also picked us up and is such an interesting guy, with a huge history of experience. We will use them every time we come to the island from now on. Professional, polite and efficient. Excellent!

Great trip with Terry, he move out of his rout to collect us with our bikes as we found it quite hard to ride the bikes in Isle of Wight. He went extra mile to be able to drive us back to East Coves In a busy afternoon/evening. Nice chat as well. Thank you once again !!!

This is the only company I use for taxi bookings for my family. The owner has always had a taxi available at the time required and is on time. He provides a good, honest, correct fare, swift service and I appreciate it as does my dad, thanks

I cannot rate TJ taxis highly enough. They collected my parents from the Red Jet who were travelling back from Southampton following cancer surgery. I was able to arrange the pick up and make payment remotely. Terry called me to let me know that when they were collected and safely in the taxi. Providing such a first class service in such challenging times is incredible. Thank Terry your service went over and above and then some.

Drove husband and I home from Red Jet - husband had fragile right arm after surgery in Salisbury.Driver helped husband into car (comfortable and air conditioned) and drove incredibly carefully and smoothly around bends etc. Also once we were in he closed glass partition between him and us and let us know that we were sufficiently separate from him to be able to remove masks if we wished to (hot muggy day).Highly recommend

Very happy with the service we received and particularly impressed with Terry at the office’s fast response with a lost phone of mine in one of the cabs. His prompt attention in returning the phone to me in London was terrific, and I’m most grateful. Will definitely use again when back on the island.

This company I have used for over a decade. When I'm ill he would pick my essentials up and drop it off, when I forget a birthday he will run to the florists and pick up a bunch for the lucky birthday boy/girl. He has always picked me up when I'm in need which can be very difficult to find at times with taxi firms on the Isle of Wight. By far the most professional,kind and authentic cab driver. Fair prices on time what more could you want!!!!!!

Excellent service, if they say they will be there at a certain time, then you can expect them within 1minute of that time! (traffic pending!) Drivers chatty and friendly, and know where they are going, the best routes to take. I always suggest this firm to anyone that asks

I ordered 3 taxi's to pick up 3 separate party's who require extra assitance when disembarking from the Red Funnel East Cowes ferry, it was running behind schedule but they re assured me that they were aware of this and they will wait no matter what, upon arrival all 3 drivers greeted the passengers waiting in the terminal and helped everyone with there bags and wheelchairs, they were so helpful and reliable! Would defiantly recommend - they go above and beyond for their customers! Thanks once again, no doubt be booking with you again soon - Rachael, Red Funnel

Excellent service today. We prebooked coming down from Nottingham for a family funeral and they called us to make sure we had made the ferry and even advised us on the exact time to travel so we weren't waiting for an hour at the crematorium. They would have waited until we were ready to go back to the families at the wake but we got lifts from relatives.Really outstanding good old fashioned service. Thanks very much from us all.
