Welwyn A2B Taxis is a licensed private hire operator based in Welwyn Garden City, providing local journeys, airport transfers and executive travel across Hertfordshire. We have been driving people around this part of the county for 20 years, and most of our work still comes from repeat customers and recommendations.
We are a local firm, not a national app. When you call 01707 373737 you speak to someone who knows the difference between the Howardsgate and Bridge Road ends of town, how long the Ayot Green roundabout backs up on a Friday, and which Heathrow terminal your airline actually uses.
Licensed, insured and checked
Every part of our operation is licensed by [Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council]:
- We hold private hire operator licence number.
- Every driver holds a current private hire driver licence and has passed an enhanced DBS check
- Every vehicle holds a private hire vehicle licence and is inspected to the council’s standards
- All vehicles carry full private hire insurance for carrying passengers for hire and reward
Private hire vehicles cannot legally be hailed in the street or wait at a rank, so every journey must be booked in advance through our office. That is why booking ahead, even a few minutes ahead, matters.
Areas we cover
We are based in Welwyn Garden City and cover the surrounding towns and villages, including:
Welwyn Garden City, Welwyn village, Hatfield, Digswell, Woolmer Green, Knebworth, Codicote, Ayot St Lawrence, Tewin, Essendon, Hertford, Stevenage, Hitchin and St Albans.
We also take long distance bookings anywhere in the UK, and we are used to early morning cruise port runs to Southampton and Dover.
Airport transfers
Airport work makes up a large part of what we do. We cover Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted and London City, with fixed prices agreed before you travel.
For arrivals, we track your flight using the flight number you give us when booking, so a delay does not cost you your car or leave you paying for waiting time you could not control. Our drivers meet you inside the terminal where you ask for a meet and greet service, or wait in the short stay car park for a standard pickup.
What we do differently
- Fixed prices. You are quoted a price when you book and that is what you pay. No meters, no surge pricing at 4am or on New Year’s Eve.
- We answer the phone. 24 hours a day, every day of the year, including Christmas.
- The same faces. Our drivers are local and many of our customers ask for the same driver by name.
- Suitable vehicles. Saloons, estates, executive Mercedes, [NUMBER]-seat minibuses and wheelchair accessible vehicles.
- Child seats. Available on request at no extra charge, if you tell us the child’s age and weight when booking.
Business and account customers
We work with local businesses, hotels, care homes and event organisers across Hertfordshire on account terms with monthly invoicing. If you regularly move staff, clients or residents, call us and we will set something up that suits how you work.
