It's that time of year again - with just two weeks until Christmas Day, many are busy searching for the perfect gift for family and friends in Southampton city centre. With such a great range of shops in Southampton, including over 100 in Westquay shopping centre alone, it's no wonder the city is a popular destination for Christmas shopping. The Christmas market at the Above Bar pedestrian precinct is running until the 24th December and is also attracting those looking to get into the festive spirit.

Unfortunately, travelling to and from the city centre at this busy time can be a stressful experience! Queuing for car parks, finding a space and ending up miles away from the shops doesn't put most people in a festive mood! So why not take a white Hackney Carriage taxi instead? Get dropped off right where you want to be and enjoy shopping with no worries about how long you have parked for or how you will carry all those bags back to the car!

For a stress-free Christmas Shopping trip - use a taxi! You can hail a white Hackney Carriage taxi from the roadside or find us at taxi ranks conveniently located throughout the city centre including at Portland Terrace - outside Westquay shopping centre, Portland Terrace - opposite Asda, at the Bargate in the High Street and opposite Debenhams in Queensway.
