City View Taxi

Best taxi service around! They are very reliable and prompt especially compared to other taxi services in the area. I get really anxious using other taxi services because I know they’re not as reliable as City View.

I agree with previous review. We were taken on an alternate route to our destination in order to rack up a large cab fare. Our destination was 10 miles from our hotel so the fare shouldn’t have been more than $ 35, but we were charged $ 55! The driver tried to distract us with compliments and tourist facts. I recommend Mitch at Black’s Taxi. Cheaper rates and honest driver.

I’m a «local» and I don’t drive. I use City View to get around.
I love these guys and so does my family because they know I’m in good hands when I’m with them.
Their fare is reasonable — I mean, the one drawback about using a cab is that you do have to pay for it, so I don’t understand why people complain about that.
I don’t know what I’d do without the guys at City View.

P. S. I had to laugh after reading a rather lengthy review by Kristen, below, because she said she ordinarily wouldn’t review a cab company. Really? Kristen has reviewed 711 companies with long rants and raves. I think Kristen’s reviews are more pages than War and Peace, so she either has a lot of time on her hands or she does this for a living. My guess is the latter.

This has been my choice of cab service over the course of 5 years. Very punctual, always on time, very affordable, and awesome personalities! Not only has this taxi service saved me on really late nights, but we have made friendships in the meanwhile. I would never use another taxi service. If you are in a pickle, need to be picked up from the airport, need a ride home from a bar, or whatever it is — CALL CITY VIEW TAXI!!!

The taxi driver wasn’t paying attention and took us to the wrong winery. Once we got to our requested destination the meter was at 51.00. He only charged us 40.00 which I felt was high considering he made us late for our reservation and seemed that he took the slow route with a lot of lights. We called the same company to take us back to our hotel and the bill was still about 40.00. This driver insisted that we pay cash even though we confirmed that they accept credit cards before they picked us up. Seems kind of shady to me. There has got to be a better way around wine country for those who do not believe in drinking and driving.

Said 15 min., then after 25 min, said 10 more min. We walked home after waiting 20 more. Typical cab scheister company.

Used this service in our way to a wedding from Springhill Suites. Not only did th trip to the winery seem a little steep ($ 30 each way), but the passenger seat of the cab had gum on it. We found this out after I had sat in it with my suit and got gum all over my behind. The cabbie said he would give us a discounted ride back to our hotel (which he did not), but said to contact him if it doesn’t come out. The way I was treated by both the cabbie and person who answers the phone, I highly doubt they will help pay for any of the damages to my suit. So much for the nice” family owned” business.

We arrived at our hotel in Temecula on a Thursday morning. We got a bunch of numbers from the desk and began to shop around for a driver to take and wait for us at the local wineries. City View Taxi took the 4 of us around from 11 AM to 5 PM to all the wineries of our choice for $ 50 per person. The driver Isaac was very friendly and waited for us at all wineries. He even drove one of us who got sick back to the hotel in the middle of the day, and came back for the rest of us. We had a very good experience with Isaac and City View Taxi.

Just a few cents under $ 50 for a ride from Marriott SpringHill Suites to our wine tour meet-​up location on De Portola Road.
Absolutely freaking ridiculous.
David was our driver last Saturday morning. We had to go an alternate route because the freeway was «backed up,» huh? Riiiiiiiight. Regardless, David took us on a wild goose chase, zigzagging through all sorts of back roads to rack up an absurd fare. It’s a shame that, being that the cab was more than 15 minutes late to pick us up, my boyfriend and I were on a tight schedule; I would have given David a much bigger piece of my mind if time permitted. About $ 30 into our ride I knew that we had been played, but later that day when we received a free ride back to the hotel from some new friends I realized just how out of the way David went to produce a $ 50 fare.
The vehicle? A crappy – and that’s being very kind – ancient Lincoln Continental with cracked tan leather seats, shredded stained roof upholstery, and door paneling that I actually had to push back in place to keep from falling off.
Normally I wouldn’t review a taxi company after experiencing a single ride, but City View Taxi is definitely worth an exception.
