Welcome to Scotland's Premier Passenger Taxi and Baggage Transfer service

We are a family owned and run business providing passenger transport throughout Scotland for 8 years. We are dedicated to providing our customers with the very best service and attention to detail whether we are taking a large group on 10 day tour of Scotland or a single item of luggage to the next drop off.

Based in Fort William in the heart of the Highlands," The Outdoor Capital of the UK"
We are ideally situated for easy access to all amenities such as “West Highland Way", “East Highland way", “Great Glen Way", “Ben Nevis", “Glen Coe", “Isle of Skye", “Mull and Iona", “Airports", “Railway Stations" and “Ferry Terminals".

We operate a modern well maintained fleet of vehicles to include a 6 passenger seat Ford Galaxy's, 8 passenger seat Ford Tourneo, 14 passenger seat Ford Transit, 16 passenger seat Mercedes Sprinter with wheelchair access and a 33 passenger seat Mercedes Beaver. Most vehicles have adequate luggage capacity and we can also offer bicycle and canoe transport with our custom built trailers. All vehicles undergo regular safety inspections as per VOSA.

Our Drivers

Our drivers are all qualified to PCV category D license and have been disclosure checked as we also operate local school contracts and have recently completed 35 hours driver CPC training which included first aid, manual handling, risk assessment etc.

Baggage Transfer

Luggage transfer service for walkers, cyclists or paddlers on the Great glen Way, East Highland Way or West Highland Way.
Let us lighten the load and do all the heavy carrying of your excess luggage so you can get on with enjoying your day walking or climbing and be confident your belongings are in safe hands and will be delivered to your Guest House, Hotel or campsite for when you need them.

The "get you back" / Taxi service
If you arrive at your starting point by car, we can also arrange transportation to get you, your bags and all your equipment back to your vehicle.

Simple, professional, and stress free, why not leave your baggage for us to transfer during your entire holiday. All you have to do then is amble, ramble, walk, cycle or paddle your way to your next destination and will only have to worry about taking those fabulous photographs!

Label your Luggage!!
On the morning of your first Baggage transfer, you will need to tag ALL your bags with the Surname that your luggage transfer booking was made in. One of our drivers will then attach one of our labels which should stay on your luggage for the duration of your holiday.
Bags are restricted to 25kg for safe handling and are usually collected / delivered between 9am and 4pm so you don't have to be up with the larks and they should be waiting for you when you arrive.

Events

We are happy to supply transport for any sporting or social events such as football, shinty, golf, weddings, hen & stag nights, Christmas parties etc.

National Three Peaks Challenge (24Hrs):- Collection from Glasgow or Edinburgh Airport / Railway Station on Friday and transfer to Fort William, early start with ascent of Ben Nevis (1344m) returning to base around lunch. Transfer to the Lake District for ascent of Scafell Pike (978m) and finally transfer to Wales for ascent of Snowdon (1085m). The total distance for the transfers on the challenge is 460 miles which should take around 10 hours in moderate traffic. On completion of the challenge the last leg is a final transfer to Manchester Piccadilly where you will be dropped off.

The paths on the mountains are well defined and relatively easy to follow with the correct maps and good visibility but it is advisable to use the services of a local guide which will both greatly improve safety and enhance the experience on the mountain with their local knowledge. We can provide guides or supply you with their details.
