About Us

Gem’s Taxis was founded in July 2006 to offer Newton Abbot and the wider Teignbridge area a more reliable, friendlier private hire service. Two decades later, we’re still doing exactly that — same family, same promise.

Twenty years on the road

We’ve watched our town change. Our drivers have changed too — many have been with us for over a decade. What hasn’t changed is the promise we started with: realistic ETAs, the shortest possible route, and prices that don’t pull surprises.

What sets us apart

  • Fully licensed by Teignbridge District Council and fully insured
  • Every driver is DBS-checked and professionally trained
  • Modern, well-maintained fleet — 4-seater saloons up to 8-seater people carriers, plus two executive Mercedes for business and special occasions
  • Multi-lingual drivers available on request
  • Business accounts with monthly invoicing — trusted by hotels, restaurants and businesses across South Devon for over 15 years
  • 24/7 availability, every day of the year — Christmas Day and New Year’s Day included

Our hotel partners

Several Newton Abbot and Teignbridge hotels have been with us for over a decade. We take care of their guests’ airport transfers, restaurant runs and local sightseeing, and we don’t take that trust lightly.

Family-run, still family-run

We’re not a national chain or a venture-funded app. We’re a Newton Abbot company that lives in Newton Abbot, and we plan to be here for the next 20 years too.
