How we compare

How this page is put together

We prioritise useful booking routes, licensing context and visible service differences over generic “best taxi” claims.
For each operator we note how you book (phone, website or app), whether cards are accepted, and which journeys it suits, such as airport runs or accessible travel.
Details are taken from operators’ own websites and public sources. We are not a licensing authority, so always check the driver’s badge and the vehicle’s licence plate before you travel.

Local notes

This page lists 4 taxi and private hire operators that publish their own contact details and state that they serve Peterhead. Each entry was checked against the operator’s own website or official page on 19 September 2026. We have not taken test rides and the order is not a quality ranking.
