The Simple Idea That Requires Years of Experience!

There is a lot more to HolidayTaxis.com that initially meets the eye, to make our service work seamlessly.

Overseas Suppliers

HolidayTaxis.com know that it is vital to have outstanding contacts in each of our destinations, which is why we only work with the best and most experienced overseas handling companies. These dedicated contacts are there to manage our transfer company partners and to ensure that all bookings are received and arranged long before the plane arrives. Our exceptional management team have all been hand-picked from senior positions within the UK's leading travel companies, and all boast at least fifteen years’ experience in the field.

Sophisticated Technology

We have built our own unique reservation, email and billing systems from scratch, making our systems among the very best on the market. We are dedicated to a conscientious process, in order to make it impossible for any booking to get lost.

Once a travel agent or customer makes a booking on our site, an email is automatically sent to our in-resort handling agent, and the booking is added to the confirmation file. Once the agent has confirmed the booking via email, or within the admin section of the site, then the booking is transferred to the ‘booked’ section. However, if, for any reason, the booking is not confirmed, it is flagged to one of our UK administration team, who will follow this up immediately. Simply put, there is absolutely no way for us to lose your booking!

Other areas of automation have been put in place, from confirmation emails, to sophisticated commission and invoicing structures for travel agents. Our incredibly low prices are completely dependent upon this sophisticated back-office set-up, and give us complete confidence that we will never be beaten on service or price.
