What Our Customers Say
View on TripAdvisor →“We booked a tour around the island and it was an amazing journey. Paul was our driver and tour guide — a safe driver, professional, warm with an outgoing friendly manner. He has a vast knowledge of the island, its history, people and culture. We went to areas off the normal path with spectacular views. He made the tour very special. I would highly recommend J and J Taxis.”

Outstanding Tour · Jun 2025
“We booked a 2 hour private taxi tour. Lots of stops for photographs on what was a beautiful afternoon and flexibility on where we went. Great local knowledge and lots of insights on life in Bute you'll never hear about on a bus tour. Our driver and guide was the 3rd generation owner of this long established taxi company and we would recommend a tour to anyone.”

An excellent afternoon out · May 2023
“On a Fred Olsen cruise and stopped at Rothesay. Jonny who owns the company was very helpful. He took us on a super tour, happy to stop if we wanted to take photos and most knowledgeable about the island. The tour took about two hours and we can really recommend it.”

“What great service from this taxi service. We used them when we were in Rothesay to get out and about. When we phoned to book a taxi they came in a minute! This happened every time! All the drivers were just really nice and so helpful.”

Excellent service · May 2023
“I signed up for a two-hour tour, with stops for photos — best decision I made on the whole trip! Marc took me around, sharing both historical facts and local knowledge. I didn't feel like I was on a 'tour' — I felt like a local friend or family member was showing me around for the joy of it!”
