Why it’s Advised to Book Cabs in Berkeley, Ca in Advance
Posted: Apr 07, 2015
Booking a cab in advance has its benefits which people don’t know about or turn a blind eye. Do you know the advantage of an early hotel booking? The same privileges also apply when you book a cab in advance. It may sound strange or fabricated but it’s actually true.
First of all, the ‘early bird rates’ are also applicable in Berkeley cabs. This may not make much of a difference for a regular traveler to Berkeley ca but it does for a first timer and sightseeing tourists. If you are a regular traveler you must know the cab rates by now and you also know they change during peak hours, if you didn’t; now you know. When flights are landing every two minutes, chances of cab drivers increasing their rates are high because their services are on demand. So, if you don’t want to be part of this ridiculous money exploitation by cab drivers, book early.
If you are a first timer in Berkeley ca, it’s recommended to book a cab in advance to avoid being overcharged by cabbies at the airport. Unauthorized cab operators at the airport can really give visitors a bad first impression. If you are a tourist, you clearly know the disadvantages of not booking in advance. You settle for ‘not so good’ rooms at high rates. As for cabs to get around the city, their prices vary with the number of tourists visiting. Low season means cheaper rates and high season, higher rates. But if you book in advance your rate wouldn’t be affected even if it’s a high season.
Secondly, if you book in advance, a cab for you is guaranteed anywhere anytime. But this depends on the company you’ve booked with. Some unreliable Berkeley cab companies leave their clients stranded during peak hours. A substantial number of clients with no alternative means wait up to five hours or more for their cabs to arrive. This is injustice of the highest level considering they booked in advance to avoid miscalculations like this. But with a reliable, convenient and reputable cab firm, they will always show up as scheduled though a little panicking if you don’t spot them straightway in the waiting area is allowed. So, before you book in advance with a certain cab firm, check out its reputation to avoid disappointments.
Cabs in Berkeley ca are highly recognized for offering the best service to their clients apart from a few, who clients complained of not being on time, poor customer service and overcharging. But most of them provide a great customer experience, visit Berkeley and find out for yourself.
