Years on Cape Town’s roads, and every guest treated like a regular.
I'm Arthur. I run A.M. Cabs LTD and I'm its only driver, so the person you message is the person who picks you up. I have long experience behind the wheel in Cape Town and the Western Cape, and guests from Sweden, Australia, London and across South Africa ask for me by name when they come back.
I'm easy to reach before your trip and quick to reply, from the first message to the final drop-off.
What guests say
Arthur collected us from the airport at midnight and was waiting before we even reached arrivals. Over the week he drove us to Cape Point, Boulders and the winelands, always on time and always with a good suggestion for lunch.
We travelled with two small children and asked if Arthur could help with a baby seat. It was already fitted when he picked us up. Careful driving, a spotless car and so patient with the kids.
I booked Arthur for friends visiting Cape Town. He was punctual, his car was spotless and he was so easy to communicate with. I never had to worry about them.
Travelling alone, I wanted someone I could trust. Arthur was safe, calm on the road and full of local knowledge. Chapman’s Peak with him was the highlight of my trip.
Nine of us across three generations, and Arthur made every day easy. Plenty of room in the van, patient with the children and flexible when we changed plans.
First time in South Africa on my own and Arthur made it feel simple. Reliable, friendly and quick to reply to every message.
