I gave this disgraceful company one star because there is no "negative" option. The cab was filthy and when I called the company to inquire why the driver was not wearing a mask (covid-19 pandemic) the owner cussed me out and told me to take my business elsewhere. read more

I'm only giving one star because there's not a "negative" option. I didn't even ride in one of their taxis, but considering my experience, I'm glad I didn't, because I sure wouldn't have felt safe! I was leaving work to go home for lunch like I do every day. While pulling out onto the main road (Mooretown Rd.) I saw that the first traffic light was red, but was about to turn green. Since there were 4-5 cars in the right lane, and no one in the left, I accelerated and turned on my turn signal to get over. I looked in my mirror and this car was FLYING. The speed limit on this road is 45, having just gone up from a 35 mph section. I sped up so I wouldn't be stuck behind the stopped vehicles. By the time I felt I could safely change lanes, I did so and looked down only to see I was doing almost 60 mph and the cab was still gaining on me. Once I made it through the intersection, I looked in my rearview and couldn't even see the cab's headlights (still at about 60 mph). I tapped my brakes to slow down and the driver slammed on their brakes then changed lanes. I slowed down further to get the cab's information only to see it was a very young woman driving the cab. Upon calling the number, I got a busy signal several times. Once I saw her again, she was on the phone, and refused to make eye contact with me each time. Once I was home, I was finally able to get through and asked if I was speaking to a dispatcher or a driver. I was informed it was the driver I was speaking to. I asked if she was in an office or in a car. Her response was, "Why? Are you calling to complain, because you cut me off?" I answered back, "No, I'm calling because you were doing over 60 mph in a 45 mph zone and tailgating me at that speed." I never got another response, she just hung up on me. Upon reading the one other review here on yelp.com, it appears as though they apparently make specific appointments for pickups and ask people to call back when they may have a fare in the cab. Apparently, they don't want to scare their fare by writing while driving. Either way, if these are the driving habits they maintain while en route to pick up a potential fare, I'll pass. I have children getting ready to start driving. I don't want them to have to be on the road with idiots like this. read more

Historic Taxi is one of the cab services that handles the Williamsburg area. We used them for the first time to catch a ride from a hotel to a Zipcar, and it did the trick for us. I'd recommend them again. In the evening, I tried to schedule a pickup the next morning for about a 10-minute drive, but they asked me to call 20 minutes before my desired departure time the next morning. No problem, maybe that's how the Williamsburg cabs work. In the morning, though -- and this sure was weird -- the operator on the line asked me to call back in five minutes and make sure I was scheduled. Now, I don't ride taxis in suburban areas all that often, but that doesn't seem very normal! Nevertheless, the ride came spot on time and took us exactly where we wanted to go (Bypass Road to the William & Mary campus for about $7.00 or so for two of us), even though I made the faux pas of admitting we were on our way to a Zipcar -- I imagine cabbies don't like the idea of car sharing. The vehicle was in fine shape and we were very comfortable during the ride. Try 'em! read more

Called a day ahead to reserve a ride to the airport. Fee was average. Cab was dirty, real dirty! Van was very old with, I was told, over 300k miles! Smelled of cigarette smoke and now I do too! Multiple dash warnings lights where on and black tape put over to hide them as to not disturb the driver. The cabby was nice enough, arrived on time and drove safely. They don't take Amex and do not have a credit card reader and have to take card info manually! Time to get new vehicles and get with the times regarding credit card reader and pay options! read more

It would be good business sense not to drive like Michael J Fox at warp speed when a) you are in the business of driving, and b) your business name is branded upon the side of your vehicle. read more

On Oct. 26, 2012, I made a reservation to be picked up at home for a transfer to the airport at 6 a.m. I noted to them that it was important to arrive on time. The man said there was no problem. On the 27th, ten minutes past the pick-up time, I called and the lady on duty said no one told her she had a pick-up. I will give her much credit for then arriving as quickly as she could but would not recommend them if you hav a plane to catch. Also, on way to airport she was also doing the dispatch job and had to answer the cell phone while driving...totally unacceptable. I wonder if the state would revoke their license for such unsafe practices. This is not a professional operation! Be careful!!! read more

I called ahead to get a taxi to my hotel. Arrived on time, reasonable , and I will use again. thank you
