A 6 seater taxi in Tolworth is the middle ground between a normal saloon and our largest people carriers. It is a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) with room for up to six passengers, which makes it the natural choice for a family of five or six, or a small group heading out together.
Who books a 6 seater
The most common bookings for our 6 seater MPVs are:
- families of five or six going to the airport together
- grandparents joining a family trip, so nobody has to follow in a second car
- groups of friends going out for the evening in Kingston or Surbiton
- colleagues travelling together to a meeting or event
- parents sharing a school journey, as part of our school run taxi service
One car usually costs less than two saloons for the same journey, and it keeps the group together.
Passengers and luggage: the honest version
This is the part people most often get wrong, so it is worth being clear. A 6 seater MPV carries six people comfortably, but when every seat is taken, the boot space behind the last row is limited. That is fine for a night out or a short trip with hand luggage. It is not enough for six people with a large suitcase each.
As a guide:
- six passengers with hand luggage: a 6 seater is ideal
- four or five passengers with suitcases: a 6 seater works well, because a spare seat can be folded for luggage
- six passengers with large suitcases: book a 7 seater taxi instead, or two cars
Tell us the exact number of passengers and bags when you book, including buggies, golf bags and car seats, and we will make sure the car fits. Child seats are available on request.
Airport runs for families
Family holidays are when the 6 seater earns its keep. From Tolworth, the most popular runs are to Gatwick for summer holidays and to Heathrow for long-haul flights. With flight tracking on the return pickup, the car will be there when you land even if your flight is delayed, and meet and greet means the driver can help you find the car with tired children and a loaded trolley.
Days out from Tolworth
Chessington World of Adventures is only a few minutes from Tolworth along the A243, and a car saves the long walk from the car park with small children. Other popular family days out include Hampton Court Palace, Richmond Park and the riverside at Kingston. We can drop you off and collect you at a time you choose. Local pickups are available across Chessington, Hook, Surbiton and the other areas we cover.
Evenings out
For a group of six going out in Kingston, Surbiton or Epsom, one car there and back avoids the problem of who is driving. Agree the return pickup time and place when you book, and call us on 020 3642 5921 if the evening runs late. We are open 24 hours, so a 2am pickup is not a problem.
