How much is taxi fare from sheffield to scarborough

[anouska 10]

Can someone please tell me how much is the taxi fare from Sheffield to Scarborough

Many Thanks

you could try phoning some taxi companies and getting quotes

 

but given how much it costs to get around town in a taxi, the i imagine the general answer will be lots

[tzijlstra 11]

I recommend getting an airport transfer taxi for this sort of distance, even then it will be prohibitive. You are better off taking the train.

Doesn't look very accurate, though.

 

Indeed, it puts scarborough just outside North Anston, and Whitby is apparently down Attercliffe

Mercury charge £105 in a car.

Mercury charge £105 in a car.

Cheaper,I should think, than by bus or train if 4 are sharing.

Mercury charge £105 in a car.

 

That works out at about a pound a mile, is that a good rate for a taxi.

£41.50 (return) the last time I was to Scarborough *last year* on the train prolly gone up since then.

its about £60 return on train unless you book really early - taxi at £100 for 4 people sounds a bargain

[Gleadly 11]

An off-peak return by train is now £45.70.

in order to compare the cost by train it depends how many are travelling and whether or not you have any railcards - a friends and family card knocks a third off the adult fare and about two thirds off the child fare - costs £27 online and up to 4 adults and four children can travel on one card

 

or a two together card knocks a third off adult fares for £27

£47.50 to get to Scarborough? Christ. You would presume there is a split available to knock the cost down?
