WA’s historic port city, covered door to door
Fremantle is about 30–45 minutes from Perth Airport depending on traffic, making it easy to combine with an arrival or departure.

We also handle local rides around Fremantle, North Fremantle, East Fremantle, South Fremantle and Beaconsfield — to the Cappuccino Strip, Fremantle Prison, restaurants along the harbour, or back to your accommodation.

Pickup points we know well
Fremantle can be awkward to navigate at street level — one-way streets around the West End, restricted access at the port, and event days that close roads entirely. Our drivers know where they can actually stop, which saves you standing on a kerb with luggage wondering where the car is.
- Fremantle Passenger Terminal — cruise arrivals at Victoria Quay
- Rottnest ferry terminals — B Shed and Rottnest Express
- Fremantle Train Station — connections to the Perth line

Why Fremantle locals ride with us
Fixed fares, quoted before you book
No meter anxiety and no surge pricing on a Friday night. You see the fare first, and that is the fare you pay — whether it is a five-minute run to the markets or a late trip back from the airport.
Built around cruise and ferry timings
Cruise days at Victoria Quay and the Rottnest ferries both create sharp demand peaks. Give us your docking or sailing time and we will plan the pickup around it rather than around the clock.
Genuinely 24/7, including late nights
The Strip does not empty out early on weekends, and neither do we. Late finishes, early airport starts and hospital shift changes are all normal bookings for us.
The right vehicle for the job
Sedans for everyday trips, SUVs and maxi taxis when there is luggage or a group, and wheelchair accessible vehicles with ramp access. Tell us what you need when you book.
