Gateshead sits directly across the Tyne from Newcastle, so it is one of the closest places we cover to our Quayside head office. We collect from homes, hotels, offices and venues across the borough and take you wherever you need to go, whether that is over the river or across the country.

Every journey is pre-booked and priced before you travel. Put your pickup and destination into the booking form and you see a fixed price up front: no meter running in traffic, no surge pricing, and the whole run quoted including tolls.
