Taking a taxi can be the fastest and most convenient way of travelling from a station to your accommodation, or for taking you home safely at night. If you share a cab with other people, it is not always more expensive than other types of public transport. But it’s risky as well. In case of airport transport of Gatwick, you should hire Gatwick to Heathrow taxi before you reach there. What you have to do, you need to find a company that offers Gatwick to Heathrow taxi as who doesn’t want to reduce Gatwick transport cost means your transportation cost.rnBefore going for a deal of a Gatwick to Heathrow taxi, you need to check the license of the Gatwick transport company. In London a licensed taxi is known as a black cab (it is not always painted black). These taxis should be safe, and the drivers know London roads well. Two of the largest licensed cab operating companies is Computer Cab and Radio Taxis. Or you can inform any Gatwick transport company through phone or online to order for a Gatwick to Heathrow taxi. Here are some tips to find comfortable transport: • First Google the words to find one of the best Gatwick transport company that offers Gatwick to Heathrow taxi. • Don't get into a taxi that is parked in front of the train station or at a tourist site. These are waiting for unsuspecting tourists and are known to charge rates several times higher than they should be. So it would be wise if you hire Gatwick to Heathrow taxi from the very beginning of your journey if you are looking for a airport transport. • If you need to catch a taxi on the street, make sure it is a genuine registered taxi. The yellow roof light must be permanently installed and must say ‘TAXI’ in black letters on both sides. The company name, licence number and rates should be printed on both front doors. But this all might be overlooked if you are in a hurry like you need to catch a train, bus or a flight; in this situation you should try to find Gatwick transport company to call for a Gatwick to Heathrow taxi. • Try to find out beforehand how much your ride should cost. If you're stopping a taxi on the street, you can ask the driver before getting in and even pay in advance if the amount sounds reasonable. And if you're ordering Gatwick transport by phone (always a good idea), you can get price estimation from the dispatcher. • Once in the car, make sure that the rate on the taxi’s meter corresponds to the price list posted in the car. If it doesn't, bring it to the driver's attention or have him stop the car and get out. But if you hire any Gatwick transport you need not to go for checking the price list as after seeing that list you have already ordered for the Gatwick transport. You have the right to request a printed receipt from the driver. If he refuses to give it to you, you can refuse to pay the taxi fare.rnFor more info: http://jewelcars.co.uk/
