We’ve taken our first licensed black taxi when we landed in London at the Heathrow Airport. Surprisingly, there was ample room in this small sedan. The luggage had gone in the same compartment as our seats just in front of our legs. There is a separator between the driver and the passengers with a Small opening for the payment. The driver seemed to be knowledgeable, played the radio as there was very little talking during our commute. The standard rate increased at £2.80. In total to get to Notting Hill, was close to £70. The service was mediocre, the driver had helped with my luggage upon getting inside the cab, but he did not step out once we arrived at our destination. I would probably only take this for the convenience as service was not so good.
