How about 45 minutes late? They said they were busy, but a couple that called them at the same time we did, got their taxi in about 6 minutes. Ours took about 45 minutes. It was 10 oclock at night, about 2 am our time back home and we had two small children. Granted our plane was late, but it seems like in the airport taxi business, they would be prepared for that. Not sure why the couple beside us who called at the same time we did, got the taxi first. The first time I called, they did not ask for a name, but they said it would be there in about 8 minutes, which did not happen. We called multiple times, but the lady said they were busy. The driver was nice, but would never use them again because it is not worth the risk of it being a busy time and having to wait for a long time because they do not have enough drivers. We got a different ride to the airport and they were right on time.
Love Charleys taxi! Easy, well priced way to get around Oahu, Waikiki, they have great deals to getting to popular destinations from Waikiki. Their drivers are always super professional and nice! We use them every time we are in Hawaii. Also the best rate in town to get to airport from Waikiki.
They are on time, polite and helpful. Their vehicles are clean. Easy to pay with a credit card if you like. I do prefer to tip cash. Very easy to make a reservation. Will definitely use them again.
Cory the driver was very helpful and super nice. He kindly put our bags in his SUV and helped my mother into the vehicle as well as out when we arrived at the airport.Excellent customer service!!
I was in the hospital needed to get my sister to pharmacy to get my medications. Cab came quickly. Driver and dispatch were very nice and helpful. Was able to get medications before pharmacy closed
Charleys Taxi is amazing! We visited Honolulu and our driver was more than happy to show us some well hidden spots. Drivers are friendly and knowledgeable. You cant go wrong for the price!
Car was prompt, our driver was amazingly nice, and made sure we were comfortable. She drove safely, and didnt press any awkward conversation on us! We only talked a little but she was very nice. (We were very exhausted from an exciting day) Overall if Im back in Hawaii, this business is my first call when I want a ride.
No nonsense typical taxi driver for the common folk with better rates. Try to get the flat rate. We got a flat rate minivan for $29 for 2 people from Waikiki to HON Airport (May2021) reserved the night before, so they are very accommodating. They will remind you to tip the driver. Vehicle was clean & driver knows his route, even when I questioned why he didnt go another way. Driver settled our luggage for us, even going so far as to cover them with a blanket to avoid scratches. I would choose them again to get from A to B. Its not fancy, but it gets you there safely & on-time. Driver doesnt speak much, probably because hes focused on the road & keeps your privacy. Good bang for your buck!
A little bit of a wait at Honolulu airport but expected. At least we had reservation & avoided long line. Driver very nice & made good time in traffic to Waikiki. Will use for return to airport.
We used Charlies while on Oahu. Both times drivers were professional, and the first showed up early. The second driver today was extremely friendly. We enjoyed our conversation with him, including his one year-old son. He automatically gave us a military discount. I gave it back to him plus extra.
Perfect taxi company for getting to and from the airport. $29 flat rate is perfect. And drivers are friendly and not pushy like other cab drivers.
Love them! Love their rates! Love their quick response time! I would suggest scheduling ahead as often as you can because they do get busy during peak times and seem short staffed at night.
Then drivers and cars are always pleasant the only complaint is they are often very busy and there is quite a long wait most timed that Ive called. One positive thing is that they always accept cash or card which is not all that common most taxis around here only accept cash
Ive used them for a week and diff stops, every driver has been polite and even chatted during the trip. Ive been quoted an hour almost every time Ive called but each time theyve showed up in 5-10mins.Only minused a star because some drivers may still have base access but in reality they do not. I have been asked by dispatch multiple times if I needed a base accessible driver yet..they dont have access to base without an affiliate
Both of our drivers were very nice and very helpful. They gave us tons of tips on where to eat and where to go. They both were punctual and took the fastest routes. Would recommend.
Service was awesome! They were on time, texted confirmation and pickup. Driver was very friendly and we enjoyed the ride to and from the airport.
I had a taxi reserved for 5am to get to the airport and it was 20 minutes late. The driver was nice but just plan earlier than you need to make sure you’re not late.
Been to Honolulu 2 times and used Charleys for Evey ride except 1 time. Big mistake using the other company. Charleys cars are always looking like new and the drivers are super friendly and helpful. Never had to wait on them at the airport either. Was always a car there within 5 minutes.
Showed up on time at Sheraton Princess, was very helpful, friendly, talkative, and helped us put our luggage in the van and back out at the airport in Honolulu International.
Used the app to order taxis. Much faster this way :) Every driver was professional, kind, and fast! 10/10 recommend
Been having a wonderful experience with Charleys Taxi while here in Waikiki. Punctual and like that the drivers accept both cash and card. Hao has been our main driver, and he has been amazing! Friendly and knowledgeable!
I used them for 5 days while in Waikiki, I was so happy with every ride. Especially, Russell Joe, he was beyond and top notch. Highly recommend this company, and if you can, ask for Russell.
Fantastic taxi company. Such good service just top notch.
Great Local service and have the price of Uber and Lyft. Highly recommend for airport runs.
Charleys Taxi was Dishonest with myself and my Family we came in to Honolulu to have a Great Relaxing Trip and in ON our way from the Airport we used Charleys Taxi to drive us to our Hotel and theyre suppose to use there flat rate of $29 from the Airport, the Driver let the meter run and Charge us $45-50 and then we gave him a tip. I feel that was so Dishonest, We used Charleys Taxi Several Times on our Trip .We then learned the day we were Leaving that they Had an Flat rate by one of there other Drivers. So Dishonest and I dont Appreciate that type of business. I know there are some that have been out of work for A while but dont take from others,who have also been out of work. God dont like ugly. IF YOU TAKE A CHARLEYS TAXI MAKE SURE TO ASK FOR THERE FLAT RATE of $29 SO YOU WONT GET SCAMMED
Cory, I think was his name, was so nice and was so helpful. He helped load and unload me and my husbands luggage and was such a nice guy. He also pointed out some parts of the island and gave me some tips since I have never been here before. This taxi service is flexible if you have a lot of luggage, we had about 13 pieces of luggage, and they fit it into their vehicle just fine, just make sure you request the larger vehicle. Definitely will use this taxi service again! Thank you Cory!
Called for taxi from airport prior to takeoff. Gave flight and time of arrival. Took longer than if I just hailed any available cab.
Amazing service! Great flat rate pricing to and from airport. No surge rates. Best bet though is to call to schedule, so you dont have to wait. Super friendly, helpful staff and drivers!!
On time and straight to your destination. No deviation. Drivers are great. Very polite and cabs are EXTRA Clean. Call them for your transportation needs.
Used 5 times in 2 days on a quick visit to Honolulu All but one driver was wonderful. It is very helpful to be able to Go to their website to get an estimate of what your ride will cost.
If youre going to or from the airport this is a great inexpensive option. I got a taxi from Waikiki to the western side of the island and this cost around $140 but the uber home during prime time was ony $60. The driver tried scaring us into thinking we wouldnt be able to get a ride home later and tried to pressure us into securing a ride from her...glad that we didnt!!
After attending a dinner time Luau at Wet n Wild we found ourselves having a tough time finding a ride back to Aulani. Between the driver, Hao, and the dispatcher they went out of their way during a severe driver shortage and got my family of five to the hotel with little wait.Our driver, Hao, SUPER nice and humble man. What a pleasure to not only have drive us, but also to speak with. Complete gentleman, 100% professional, and at the same time personable and relatable. HIGHLY recommended!!I will also be speaking with the front desk and concierge at Aulani to express my total satisfaction with their recommendations.
We have always had good experiences with Charlys Taxi. We visit a few times a year and always call them!
Great prices and reliable service.
Utilize Charlies taxi several times while on the island. Always exactly on time and great drivers.
Cool friendly drivers but pricey!
Charleys Taxi is amazing! All drivers are friendlyAll Cars we ride with are very clean .
Great service, got the scenic route at the flat rate!
If you need a taxi from your hotel to the airport in Honolulu, we highly recommend this. Super easy to schedule, on time, flat rate which was at least $10-$15 less than Uber. Our driver lifted our very heavy bags for us, was so so kind and polite and conversed with us just the right amount. We took a ton of rides this trip and this was the best!
Promt, efficient and reasonably priced. Excellent customer service and drivers are friendly and helpful/knowledgeable about the area.
Worse experience ever. They left us stranded for three hours. With a promise to pick us up. Reservations were made and they drug it on with the hope that someone was on there way. No one ever came and all the other places raised there prices during the time of waiting on there taxi. Just Uber if your reading this
Not bad, however, I told them pick up at international arrivals group exit, the driver went to Hawaiian side...
Speedy dispatch and really kind, knowledgeable drivers. These guys know the streets well and showed up in Waikiki to get me to the airport for 30% less than a Lyft or Uber (which had no ETA—rideshare supply is extremely constrained right now, so even with surge you may not get a ride). If I could change one thing about my trip, I would have just taken taxis the whole time. If you know you’ll need a taxi in advance, you can call to schedule too. Highly recommend!
We had another shuttle service booked from the airport to our condo in downtown waikiki, that was booked previous to flying to hawaii and they didnt show up! We called them multiple times and they said theres an accident, youll have to wait 1-2 hours while being exceptionally rude.While standing helplessly at the airport I noticed Charleys taxis going by and decided to call them, the lady was SO polite and showed empathy for our situation. She was able to dispatch a car to use within 30 minutes, with tracking! At a flat rate of $29 this was amazing given uber/lyft were showing up for $100+ at that hour. Our driver was kind, the car was very clean, and since it was a van there was no issues on space or number of people. Charleys taxis was the best way to start off our trip to Hawaii and well definitely be booking with them again!
Always on time. Clean vans, great service and can get on and off base no problem.
I called and got a taxi in literally less than 10 minutes. The taxi driver was pleasant and got is to the airport in perfect t timing. They also have a flat rate of $29 to the airport.
Great cheaper option instead of Lyft and Uber I compared prices! I wish they had this here in Oregon. They’re always quick too which I love. Also they offer a flat rate price from the airport to the beach and vice versa which is 29 + tax so around 31.50 you can’t beat that!
Always available when you need them, just call because app never works. Friendly drivers.
Great experience. I Will suggest Charleys Taxi to others,
Very prompt.called for a taxi and they said it would take abput 40minand they were there within a few minutes. Nice drivers
Great flat rate to the airport, clean and comfortable vehicle, friendly and polite driver!Always my go-to taxi!
On time, friendly and helpful. Hold time to schedule pick up can be a challenge at times when busy but prices are fair!
Made reservations to Hanauma Bay. They got me there. My reservation to get back to the hotel however was a nightmare. They failed to show up, everytime we called they said there was another person on the way. No one came. Finally they said they couldn’t pick us up due to no drivers. We sat for over three hours calling to get anywhere to come get us. The prices of Uber jumped from $60 to $140 within the time we were waiting for them to deliver us a taxi.
I always use Charleys taxi. Excellent service.
Good prices to the airport friendly drivers clean taxis’n
Cheaper and more convenient than scheduling an Uber, nice large fleet of SUVs and vans.
Excellent as always!!Just FYI...Big difference from say The Cab!! Very Rude!! So..THANK YOU CHARLEYS TAXI!!!
Prompt, courteous service ar a reasonable price!
We had a driver that was extremely nice and very knowledgeable in sharing much needed information on dining. We truly appreciate our driver and Charleys great taxi experience and reasonable rates
Five star last time I rode I was very nice and friendly three stars today at best because the man was not friendly not welcoming and not kind
Cab driver was great but their dispatch was overwhelmed. Took 1.5 hours to get a cab at the airport.
These guys were always there when we needed them. Very friendly service.
There when you need them . Easy to flag down. The app on the other hand.
Failed to arrive for base pick up to airport despite online reservation 1 week in advance detailing location, contact info, and need for base access. 15 minutes prior to scheduled time they had no identified driver. No driver by 20 minutes after, had to take my own car to airport. Big letdown for a family on travel.
The best taxi service on Oahu.
Prompt, driver was personable and polite. Great service.
Wonderful flat rate from Ko Olina to Waikiki. VERY clean taxi and nice friendly driver.
They picked me and my wife up at 1200 am at the airport our driver was so kind and professional they even helped us with our bags I hope all the drivers treat customers like that they gave flat fee which was amazing will use them and recommend
Requested a pick up at 5:30 a.m. and they were early on time quick fast and right to my destination.
The driver called us personally to verify, and when she dropped us she let us know how soon she could get back to Pearl Harbor, and told us we could just call her directly that amount of time before we got there. She was there on time.
Driver #1257 overcharged my mother. Although the flat rate of a ride from Kaka’ako to the airport is $25, the driver said he charges by meter and told to pay $35.77 and a drop fee of $3.50. He also showed up ten minutes late and dropped her off at the wrong terminal and made her walk.
I was impressed with the cleanliness, and professionalism. They have kamaaina rates that helps.
Drivers dont pay attention to people in the crosswalks.
Operators and drivers are rude. On scheduled pickups they dont show up or call.
This is a good fixed rate price from the airport to downtown Honolulu at least it was for us at this time in mid April 2021. We paid something like $30 plus a tip.
Came early, which was great 👍
Ask for a price before your ride or you will pay $10 more. Drivers are nice, cars are clean and they come get you quickly
Driver came 2 minutes after my call and he is professional. Inexpensive compared to other taxis.
Depending on the time, sometimes you might have to wait for dispatch to find an available driver.
Absolute worse experience. Left my family, pet, and 11 pieces of luggage stranded at the airport. I had a reservation and was unable to get in contact for 30 minutes. Unbelievably unprofessional.
Always on time and the cars are so clean!
Called and asked for a cab and was told 30 minutes. Called 30 minutes later and the dispatcher did not even request for a cab to come my way. Wasted my time. Dont use go else where.
So expensive, took the long way to the car rental place, it was at $7 before we even made it out of the parking lot of the hotel. Seem to hit every red light even if it was yellow. $60 ride with them versus a $25 ride with UBER, no thanks
Amazing food and beer.
Had to wait a while to get through on the phone, but saved us when Uber wouldnt pick us up!
Never heard of not being able to get a taxi!
Great service, security and professionalism.
Reliable. Will use again.
Will customize accordingly.
Good service, clean cars, polite drivers
They are slow but they seem very nice.
Charleys is hands down the best taxi service on the island.
We call last minute and they help us. The drivers are really polite and I love that they follow the Covid-19 precautions.
On time, fair prices
Better than Uber and lift . Quicker
Booked cars for a scheduled pickup and they were early. Vans were clean and and the drivers were professional.
Set up with Christine via email and her communication was on point. When we arrived Kevin was waiting for us with the extend SUV and was there ahead of time to make sure he was waiting. After a long trip it was nice to have Kevin there for us to load up our luggage for six people. The the extended SUV (a Yukon) was nice, the AC was cold and his professional was above and beyond the call of duty. The fare was EXTREMELY reasonable and I highly, highly recommend using Charleys taxi for pick up at the airport no matter what the circumstances. It was nice to be received by Charleys Taxi and their flat rate service to the Hale Koa is the perfect ending to your beginning of your vacation. Again, service was tops, communication was on target on time and Charleys Taxi took a huge load off of us after a long trip. Highly, highly recommend!!! Mahalo!
Great service great people
Scheduled a pick-up time a day in advance, for a ride to the airport and had to get an Uber after driver didnt show for over 10 minutes after pick up time, with no call.
This company is one of the best taxi company in hawaiiway better then the cabbest to make a reservation to avoid waiting longer for a taxii will recommeded charileys taxi to anyone
