Services
Allied has grown from a one car, one driver operation to a fleet of more than 20 cars ranging from saloon cars to wheelchair accessible vehicles and 8 passenger minibuses. As our team grows, our collective experience and knowledge grows, strengthening the already prestige service that Allied Taxis offer.
Please note that you must obtain a taxi driver licence, then you are welcome to contact Allied about the possibility of employment. We are especially interested in talking to drivers who may be interested in becoming an authorised tour guide and anyone with foreign language skills. Becoming a taxi driver in Shetland requires the Shetland Islands Council Taxi Drivers Licence available from the Infrastructure Services Department of the Council.
Allied taxis take pride in assuring that your driver will be at the Sumburgh Airport, on time, to meet you with a warm welcome. We always try to assist with anything that you may need to ensure a relaxing transfer. If you need a taxi to Sumburgh Airport, your driver will deliver you with plenty of time to check in and can assist you, if you wish, with luggage.
Our Allied Corporate Accounts are ideal for individuals and businesses who require taxis on a regular basis, looking for service of a high standard in a more cost effective manner. We provide a great service to each and every customer, but if you are a more regular taxi customer we can offer you an Allied Taxi Account to give you the most benefits and discounts available.
All Allied Taxis drivers have an abundance of interesting local knowledge and history to share with customers. Go off the beaten track with an Allied Taxi tour, tailor made to suit your interests. Up to eight people can enjoy the Shetland sights in the comfort of a car, MPV or wheelchair accessible vehicle with friendly professional drivers.
