Great service, and the best price in the market. It’s actually cheaper than Uber! Definitely recommend if you need a ride in New Zealand. Easy to set and accurate on time. And for a bonus, Jerry the driver is a really nice man, had a good conversation with him.

Top, friendly service in the quiet Fernside area where I learned not every taxi is willing to go. I was let down by 2 companies before Jerry did my pickup. Uber couldn't find any drivers in the area after multiple attempts. Grateful Jerry saved the day for me so I could make my travel connections. Found him super helpful and professional.
