The Isles of Mull and Iona have long been a major holiday destination for discerning visitors. Mull, in particular, is now regarded as a superb location for Eco-Tourism. Magnificent scenery and wildlife, as often featured on BBC Television and Radio, makes these isles truly memorable. If you are interested in a holiday that brings together stunning sea trips for whale and dolphin watching; land-based trips to view the ever-increasing population of Sea Eagles; hiking, fishing and photography - then Mull will not disappoint. The historical island of Iona is also the gateway to Staffa, as well as the the other Inner Hebridean isles of Coll, Tiree. The Mull Taxi Service will help meet many of your transport needs when visiting the isles - now viewed as one of the holiday destinations in Scotland. I also offer Taxi Tours/Trips.

My name is Alan Robson and I am the owner/operator of the Mull Taxi Service. Although I live in Tobermory, the taxi is available island-wide and beyond. I do pick-ups, drop-offs and returns (including from ferry) - whatever you require really. I will wait while you visit chosen places of interest. I can be flexible to suit your needs if you are a walker or wildlife observer or if you just want to be driven on our wonderful roads (mainly single track). My taxi is also used as the wedding car (see photo gallery).

I will keep fares to a reasonable cost to you by either using the taxi meter or agreeing a fixed price before your journey, which might include waiting time. I offer an off-island service either to bring you on to Mull and/or take you on to the mainland. This may include an overnight stay on the mainland for me (depending on distance involved and Summer/Winter Calmac timetable). I can include your ferry tickets in my costing and will explain my charges in full to you. I will respond to telephone calls whenever possible, but welcome advance bookings. I endeavour to make my service available all year. My vehicle is a purpose-built EuroCab conversion of a VW Transporter. I can carry 7 passengers in comfort - there is leather upholstery and air conditioning. There is a slide out passenger side-step to ease access to the vehicle (see photo gallery). The taxi is wheelchair accessible via ramps with secure fitting (see video).

Mull is a large island with some 100 miles of road, most of which are single track with passing places (not parking places). Perhaps your passengers can appreciate the scenery and wildlife, but the driver rarely can. The solution - hire the Mull Taxi Service for a whole or half day at a fixed rate anywhere on the island. If you are only visiting for one day, then consider leaving your own car on the mainland and you can be met by me at the ferry terminal at Craignure.

TAXI TOURS AND TRIPS. Although I live in Tobermory, I can pick you up from wherever you are staying and take you where you wish to go. Depending on location, I can either wait or come back for you. My charge can be based on meter rate (for single trips) or a fixed cost or hourly rate (from home to home). Many people know where they wish to go, what they want to see or do. Some people, perhaps, do not know what this area has to offer - so the following are some suggestions for outings that I can provide. Calgary Bay with its fantastic beach and coffee/lunch at Calgary farmhouse. Ben More (the only Munro on Mull). People usually manage from Dishaig (base) to the summit and back in approximately 5 hours. Treshnish - shore walk. Isle of Ulva - superb seafood restaurant. Loch Buie/Croggan/Carsaig with its spectacular sea arches. Isle of Iona. The Mull Excursion - a trip around the entire island including the truly stunning West Coast Route; coffee/lunch at Kinloch or Pennyghael or Bunessan. The Ferry Excursion - back to the mainland from Tobermory to Kilchoan. Visits to the Ardnamurchan Lighthouse (most westerly point of mainland Britain); beautiful Sanna Bay; coffee/lunch at the Sonachan Hotel; leisurely drive to Lochaline via Strontian for the ferry back to Mull landing at Fishnish then home.
