Overview
About Long-distance taxi
A long journey is a different proposition to a run across town. It needs planning: a realistic departure time, a vehicle with genuine luggage space, comfort for everyone on board and a clear understanding of what happens at the other end.
Road Buddy Transport arranges pre-booked long-distance journeys that start or finish within our operating area around Warwick. That includes travel to and from cities, business destinations, family addresses and event venues across the country.
If your trip begins or ends near Warwick, send us the details and we will confirm availability for the route.
Who long-distance private hire suits
- Business travellers who need a fixed departure time
- Families travelling together with luggage
- Passengers connecting to or from the Warwick area
- Anyone who would rather not drive a long route themselves
- Groups needing a 6 or 8-seater vehicle
- Passengers who need help with bags and boarding
Journey types
Longer journeys we can arrange
Family journeys
Visits to relatives further afield, university drop-offs and collections, and travel for family occasions where several people go together.
Events
Weddings, concerts, sporting fixtures and days out, with the return leg arranged at the same time so nobody is stranded late at night.
Appointments
Hospital, clinic and specialist appointments outside Warwickshire, where the timing has to be right and waiting may be needed.
Intercity journeys
Point-to-point travel between Warwickshire and other towns and cities, useful when connections are awkward or you are carrying a lot.
Return journeys
Two-way travel on the same day or across several days, arranged together so the pricing and timings are agreed once.
Vehicles and access
Vehicle and accessibility considerations
Longer journeys usually mean more luggage per passenger. A 4-seater is fine for one or two people with cases; larger groups are more comfortable in a 6 or 8-seater, and that comfort matters over a couple of hours.
Wheelchair-accessible vehicles can be arranged for longer journeys subject to requirements and availability. Because accessible layouts change the number of usable passenger seats, the vehicle is confirmed with you before travel.
Helpful details to include
- Full pickup and destination addresses
- Date, departure time and any fixed arrival time
- Number of passengers and cases
- Whether waiting at the destination is needed
- One-way or return, with return timings
- Any accessibility or assistance requirements

Questions
Long-distance taxi questions
How far will you travel?
Longer journeys are arranged when they start or finish within our operating area around Warwick. Send the route details and we will confirm whether the journey is available.
How far in advance should I book a long journey?
As early as you can. Longer journeys take a vehicle out of the local diary for several hours, so the more notice you give, the more likely we can cover the date and time you want.
Do you price long-distance journeys by the mile?
Every long journey is priced individually. Distance, timing, waiting, whether it is one-way or return and the vehicle required all affect the price, so we give you a figure for your specific journey.
Can you collect us on the way back as well?
Yes — return journeys are arranged at the same time wherever possible. If the return time is not fixed yet, tell us the likely window and we will discuss how best to handle it.
Can more than four of us travel on a long journey?
Yes. 6 and 8-seater vehicles can be requested. On longer journeys luggage tends to be bulkier, so tell us how many cases you have and we will advise which vehicle is realistic.
