Terrible experience, driver tried to rip me off & charge me $30 for a 3 mile ride. The cab already had 2 customers going the same direction. No meter, and horrible attitude to top it off. read more

Murphy's Taxi - Taxis Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

I took a taxi to the airport (another company) and it cost me $23. I took Murphy's home and it cost me $30. They do not post their rates and they overcharge. When I told they guy he was overcharging, he said "Yeah, that is what I charge." They should not be in business. Spread the word. read more

I used Juan from Murphy Taxi Service for a pick-up from the Gzinesville Airport very, very early on the morning of June 24th (1:45 am). The dispatcher made it easy to make arrangements with Juan, and Juan was terrific in all ways. He was there as soon as we went outside with our bags, drove us home in a nice clean and roomy SUV, and was very cordial. I highly recommend Murphy Taxi and Juan. When I next need a taxi, I will definitely request Juan for my driver. I don't post a lot of reviews, but the experience from the airport was such a nice end to a VERY long trip home from Germany, I felt like the satisfaction we felt ought to be acknowledged. read more

Always on time and very reasonable prices! Even late night arrivals and very early morning trips are no problem.

Pleasant ride, a little glitch of punctuality on my pick up due to Hurricane Debby yesterday. The taxi was rerouted due to flooding. But I arrived at the airport in plenty of time. I will use them again when I return from my trip. read more

Very good experience. Would recommend. I needed a last minute ride to the airport. To a chance with Murphy's. We'll they came through with flying colors. Made flight in time. And a clean and safe ride. Thanks Craig! . read more

Murphy's Taxi - Taxis Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Exactly, precisely on time for a 4 AM pick-up. Very nice car, but much more important is the VERY nice, helpful driver. Very reasonable pricing to the airport, too. I'll never wait for an Uber or Lyft again. read more

Thank you Murphy's!! On a crowed Easter weekend you came through. No surge pricing here, just friendly, fast service. read more

Had to catch an early flight out of GNV and wasn't sure if I could rely on Uber or Lyft. When I stepped out at 3:40 am to take the trash out, I saw the driver had already arrived - the appointed time was 4am. The bill was exactly as quoted. I will definitely be a repeat customer. read more

I highly recommend Murphy's Taxi for pre-scheduled appointments where timeliness is essential. While they charge more than Uber/Lyft, they are FAR more reliable. I have had the unfortunate experience with Uber and Lyft having 30-45 minute delays at times. This isn't an issue if I'm not in a hurry; however, it could be a problem if I have a flight to make or doctor's appointment to be at. That is where Murphy's fits in for me. I used them twice to get to the Prometric testing site where I can give them lots of notice of my appointment and they have gotten the job done each time (stress-free). They take timeliness quite seriously (when they are given advance notice) that is their specialty. I'll admit that Murphy's is probably no good for someone with unscheduled needs as the driver may not be available to show up immediately. Uber/Lyft will likely get you there faster and cheaper for unscheduled needs. read more

Murphy's promptly picked up my daughter from UF to get her to the airport for. 6:30am flight. The driver called her when he arrived at the dorm at 5am so she did not have to wait outside. The only thing that was negative was that the car smelled of cigarettes. Otherwise she arrived on time and made her flight. read more

Took a cab home from the airport last night and the driver Nick was the nicest guy! I definitely recommend using this company if you need to take a taxi in the Gainesville area. read more

Well Murphys Transportation did it again car broke down and was surprised but Murphys was able to hook me up with rides to the next 2 days of my appointments without missing a beat. Usually only used Murphys for airport pickup and drop-off. But this worked out great. Thanks again to Craig and the boys for all pitching in. See you soon. read more

Our daughter had car problems passing through Gainesville on the way from Tallahassee to UCF. We had her car towed to a dealership and later had to get her to the dealership. We read the reviews about Murphy's as we were reluctant to call a random Uber driver. I will echo what others have said. Excellent and timely service from Murphy's. Felt safer having them pick her up. Highly recommend. read more

Wonderful Company. It was the first time that I have ever used their service. I definitely will not be calling anyone else. Very professional and the Driver was very friendly. Only a ten minute wait. Thank You. read more

Very professional, accommodating & have the best prices of anywhere in the country for the OUTSTANDING services the offer!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! I wish I could give more than just 5 stars! Give them a call when you're in Gainesville & surrounding areas. They will go the distance for you!!! read more

If you're looking for a reliable taxi company for transportation in the Gainesville area, look no further than Murphy's. My driver arrived early for pick-up from Gainesville Regional Airport with a cab as clean as a whistle-no dust, garbage, smoke smell, etc. I enjoyed a good conversation and comfortable ride on the way to my destination. I know some reviewers may not care about this, but I like to support local businesses when I can. Last but not least, Murphy's has fair fares! :) read more

I needed a ride from the airport. I'm glad I used Murphy's Taxi. The car was very comfortable and clean. I had a very nice chat with the driver. I will definitely call them again. read more

I was in Gainesville for a conference during UF's spring break. I got into town after midnight (delayed flight) and my cab was ready and waiting for me. I really appreciate that Murphy's asked for my flight number so I wouldn't have to call to reschedule my pick up when my flight was delayed. As a college-aged woman traveling alone (and at night, no less), having the taxi pick me up the second I walked out the airport doors was reassuring and comforting. I happened to get the owner as my driver (I appreciate that the owner not only drives, but is willing to take the late night pick ups) and my trip was filled with pleasant conversation. The cab was very clean and ready for passengers -- in fact, the front seat was already pulled forward so I would have maximal leg room in the back! I appreciate the little details. I have already recommended Murphy's Taxi to a colleague who arrived after me; she found her driver to be friendly, personable, and prompt as well! If you are in need of a ride in Gainesville, Murphy's is the Taxi for you! read more

Called around for a taxi to take my patient home safely and found Murphy's Taxi, who's rated NUMBER # 1 in Gainesville on YELP!. Craig (the owner) answered and was happy to oblige our request. Craig gave me his driver's cell number and I called it and Anthony was just as nice as the guy who owns the company. They are definitely people persons. Anthony pulled up in a Lincoln and exited the vehicle and escorted my patient who's ambulatory to the car. When my patient left, I knew he was in GREAT hands. What An Awesome Service They Provided. Will Definitely utilized their service again. read more

We used this service to transport my class on a big field trip, and both chauffeurs were friendly and great with the children. The cars were clean and it was a great trip. They were prompt and made the whole experience great! read more

Decided to book this taxi for a trip to the airport after I read the great review. Turns out it was the best decision!!!! Driver was extremely cordial and prompt, and I made it to the airport in record time. Car was clean, free of odor, and spacious. I don't think this taxi service gets enough publicity, so please recommend it to anyone you know! I can promise you no regrets, you will be well taken care of. read more
