Taxi vs Train to Oxford

Travelling from the West Midlands to Oxford often comes down to a choice: do you take the train or book a long-distance taxi? While trains may look fast on paper, the reality includes delays, expensive tickets, and extra travel at both ends of the journey.

Why Trains Aren't Always Best
Train fares increase the later you book, and each passenger needs a separate ticket. For families or groups, this makes rail travel very expensive. There are also limits on luggage, crowded carriages, and the hassle of making connections when you arrive. After a long day, dragging bags through stations or onto buses is stressful.

Why Taxis Make Sense
With Excelsior Cars, your price is fixed in advance and does not change, even at the last minute. Our long-distance taxis can carry four, six, or even eight passengers, which often works out cheaper per person than the train. We provide a full door-to-door service, picking you up from home and dropping you directly at your destination in Oxford. There's space for your luggage in the boot, and families can request child or booster seats (small fee applies).

Your Best Option
Whether you're travelling for business, a family visit, or a holiday, an Excelsior Cars taxi offers comfort, reliability, and value compared with the train. Book online today at www.excelsiorcars.co.uk and see why so many travellers choose us over rail for journeys to Oxford.
