Great service from the team. It was easy to contact them on WhatsApp from my home country, discuss rates and get confirmed booking ahead of our arrival.

The drivers reached out on WhatsApp just as we landed/waited for pickup and informed exact pick up place, cars were in great condition, good conversation with both of them, thank you Deva and Jeyan 😄 Would definitely recommend this company. Pricing similar to what you find on Google. Thank you again team.

Flawless from start to finish.From the moment I booked, the communication was clear and prompt. Seamless online payment *optional. The driver arrived on time, he helped with all our bags, and the vehicle was spotless. Special mention to Kevin driver who picked us from airport, left a WhatsApp message even before we landed, struck up a great conversation. Neiha provided the baby car seat as arranged. Got us to the resort safely, and then back to the terminal with time to spare. Professional, friendly, and zero stress. Highly recommend!

THE BEST TAXI COMPANY IN MAURITIUS SINCE 1977

Established since 1977 in Quatre-Bornes, Taxi Service Mauritius, is the first local taxi-hailing company in Mauritius dispatching vehicles to pick-up guests around the island on a 24/7 basis. We’ve also learned to excel in providing a friendly service to tourists visiting the island. Our online platform is dedicated to visitors coming from over the world & provide them with a reliable transport solution that is both easy to pre-book & pay. We’ve succeeded in building a very positive 5-Star reputation in 2020 on our TripAdvisor & Trustpilot profiles thanks to our fantastic, friendly & dedicated staff. Unlike the competition, we believe that each & every transfer needs planning & briefing. Based on your special requests, we know who we have to send to you & we won’t just send a driver who was just roaming around your pick-up location. At Taxi Service Mauritius, trips are planned in advance to ensure a high level of service & the driver details are sent to customers at least a day before the transfer. That is also why we also urge customers to book at least a day in advance. To cut short, we are the ones that offer great service at a reasonable price in Mauritius (usually 30-50% cheaper than the individual taxis).

Our fleet consists of brand-new passenger cars, Minibuses (10 & 15 seaters), Coaster Buses, VIP Vehicles & SUVs. All our drivers are licensed individuals, never been convicted to court, have a rating of +4 over 5 & are screened every 6 months by our directors in person. Most of our drivers are local gentlemen, family-man, aged between 30-55 years old & they all have a passion for their job. They love what they do and we invite you to discover it yourself. Unlike other taxi-hailing businesses, we fully know in advance who we are sending to our guests. We believe that every trip whether short or long needs planning & preparation. We will brief your driver extensively based on your requirements for the transfer – Once this is done, we will send you the driver’s details for your convenience one day prior to the transfer. Thanks to our drivers & planning team for giving everything day & night to help us achieve success & great customer satisfaction. You can reach us through our Whatsapp or our phone office if you prefer to speak with someone at Taxi Service Mauritius. Or you can simply leave us an email & we will get back to you within hours. Frequent travelers can use our Taxi App to book their trips & earn app-only deals.
