Every year there's a buzz of anticipation in our offices as we prepare our programme of holidays and day trips for the coming 12 months.

Crammed with exciting, diverse and interesting destinations - we couldn't be happier to share what we have planned with our customers and friends.
Services
Established in the 1960s, Star has grown to become one of Birmingham's largest and most respected Transport Operators. In the 1960's, two companies, Z Cars and Star Cars came together to create "Star Cars - incorporating Z Cars". In the 80's the business was acquired by The Markham family, and Star Cars and Star Coaches as we know them today were created.
Whatever journey you need to make, Star can help. We operate more than 200 vehicles, from cars to MPVs to minibuses. Most are fitted with air-conditioning and satellite navigation as standard, plus we ensure consistent pick-up times and prices that are fixed (and on average 33% cheaper than black taxis on account).
Visit this wonderful walled city. Designer brands, independent gems and high street favourites make Chester a shopper's paradise. Enjoy a day out at the UK's most visited zoo with over 21000 animals and 500 different species. Admission not included. Discover exclusive offers and update your wardrobe with the season's latest arrivals while enjoying even more savings on outlet prices.
It's not just about price - although we are confident we'll save you money; we also believe it's about the small matter of service. We take our obligations to our customers extremely seriously, and we want to prove it to you. We'd love to be your preferred supplier for cars, minibuses and coaches. Any person or parcel that needs to be taken to any place in the country can be supplied on time and on budget.

Great company have used star cars for 20+ years and even better now with the app. Drivers always on time and friendly and prices are fair when compared to other companies.

Booking is pretty easy and drivers on time . But some of the drivers have no professional manners and do not wear mask in this difficult time and when asked they accept unwillingly or do not accept . While the law from 10 Dec. is that taxi is a public transport and they should wear a mask , they ignore the law and a driver asked me "which law ?" !!!!!!. Some of them become rude and talk unrelated to the subject .
By law they should provide ventilation while if we open the windows , they complain that it is cold . Then how can the passengers be protected ???
If the driver is exempt , it is not

Used them before to go to a wedding. Their car was big enough for my daughters. Last time used them, they went to the destination to pick us up. We were in a hurry, so it was all fine. Quick a good auto booking system via phone, but I prefer to speak to the operator. Fair price for the taxi ride.

Didn’t turn up and left us in the lurch going to a restaurant. I booked on their automated service and they confirmed the booking. 10 mins after our pick up time we had to ring the office to find out where they were. We were told they didn’t have a driver so wait another half an hour to see what they can do. Well our table was booked in 20 minutes time! They cancelled the booking and put the phone down on us. We got in the car and managed to save the table! I have used them for airport runs and restaurants over the years but I won’t anymore. No need to treat customers like that. Your job

Driver didn't pick me up/dropped me off because driver didn't come on time and I lost my appointment with solicitors.
But still star cars Birmingham deducted cab fare without any reason from my online account .
Star cars don't even deserve a single Star also.
Highly unprofessional

Star used to be really good, I don’t know what has happened. Multiple times now I have booked taxis and when they get 5 minutes away from my location they cancel the ride, that’s if they even find a driver to begin with. It’s a shame because I used to regularly use them, I won’t be anymore.
*** Update - now my account has magically been deleted. Thanks star, clearly very grateful and sorry.

As a family, we have used Star for over 40 years. Sadly, never again. On 2nd November, we waited for over 40 minutes for a pre booked taxi. No vehicle, no driver, no show. We had rushed home for an evening event but so disappointed and frustrated . When we finally got through to the operator they were completely unhelpful and borderline rude. There was no apology and no solution. All of our plans were ruined. Until another local taxi company arrived to save our us within10 minutes. We never received a call back from Star.. the operator said she was still trying .
I hope the driver isn't still

My mother in law Susan Brown used Star Cars for our wedding. The car arrived with ribbons on and the driver smartly dressed. The car was immaculate inside and out. He clearly planned the journey as he took them on an alternative route to arrive traffic. He was polite and courteous and impressed them all. Also very reasonably priced. Will definitely recommend.
