About City Cabs (Edinburgh) Ltd Taxi Service

Book a taxi in Edinburgh quickly and securely with City Cabs (Edinburgh) Ltd Taxi Service. This straightforward app puts reliable cab bookings in your hands, letting you reserve, modify, and track journeys in real time without hassle.

Core booking features handle everything you need for daily trips. Confirm, cancel, or edit your reservation at any moment. Save favourite addresses—home, work, the airport—so repeat journeys take seconds to arrange. Choose your vehicle type and apply voucher codes before payment. The app tracks your cab's location via GPS, so you know exactly when your driver arrives. Pay by cash or card, then review your complete booking history anytime.

Airport travel and account-based journeys work seamlessly too. Book directly to or from Edinburgh Airport, or set up account bookings if you have a City Cabs account number. Callback options let the driver reach you if needed. All vehicles in the fleet are wheelchair accessible; simply request this option in your settings during booking.

The 'Buddy Phone' feature adds a safety layer that matters. Add your buddy's contact number to any booking, and they'll receive a notification letting them follow your taxi's journey in real time. Once you arrive, the app can send them a text confirmation so they know you're safe. This is especially useful for late-night trips, solo travellers, or anyone who values an extra layer of security.

City Cabs has served Edinburgh since 1925, operating a fleet of over 440 taxis staffed by approximately 1,200 drivers who have all passed Edinburgh's rigorous 'The Knowledge' test. That experience means trained professionals, local route expertise, and reliable service whenever you need it.
