Charley's Taxi has provided transportation services to Hawaii since 1938. As a 3rd generation, woman-owned business, we are proud to be Hawaii's premier transportation provider. That's why we can take you places others can't. We are the only taxi company cleared to drive you on and off military bases, like Hickam/Pearl Harbor, Schofield and Marine Corps Base Hawaii.
Our high standards and technology enable us to offer something unique to Hawaii. When you call us to arrange a taxi you can request very specific attributes for both driver and vehicle. For example, you can ask for a Japanese-speaking driver with a minivan who is Tour-qualified. Or how about a VIP-qualified driver who speaks French?

Splurged for VIP experience for my family of 7 from airport to hotel. Our driver Steve was so thoughtful and patient with my family who was thoroughly enjoying the first time limo experience. Steve stopped the car at one point to come to the back and show my kids how to hook up their music to the Bluetooth. Love love loved it. We used the regular taxi service for the return to the airport and they were just as prompt and efficient.

Charley's taxi was the best cab service I've vet used. The phone call went straight to a human and not a machine, the taxi was a great price compared to Uber. We walked out side of HNL and the car was there within minutes The driver was pleasant and a great driver. We made a reservation for the next morning ans the arrived right on. Thank you, we will recommend and use your service when ever we travel to Honolulu.

Very reliable. It was easy to book online and contact them by phone. I received two calls confirming my pick up time. The driver arrived a few minutes early. It cost about $80 from Ewa Beach to the airport. I don't know how the cost compares with Uber or Lyft. I thought it was worth it because I knew I had a ride to the airport. If there was a problem or a change, I could easily reach Charley's Cab by phone or email.

Had two rides with Charlie’s Taxi while in Honolulu. First ride was excellent but second ride cheated us out of $4 by taking longer route. I called the driver out on this but said it was due “one ways” but that was BS. The typical taking advantage of tourists. The funny thing is I would have tipped him the $4 for taking the best route. Now he lost out on his tip.

Very knowledgeable and helpful driver who gave us very good information regarding current COVID rules and impacts on local activities and businesses. It made us feel like we had gotten "the lay of the land" within about 15-20 minutes of riding with him on our drive to our resort. He's my new favorite!

Absolute disaster service. You preorder and then do as instructed by Homepage. SMS didnt get answered, you call instead, you should wait 15 minutes. Another 25 minutes later 2nd call, and Taxi should arrive in 10min. Again after 20min no Taxi showing up. You better use Uber or Lyft instead. Since the Airport allows share service Charleys Taxi has a miserable service.

I will always use Charley's Taxi when going to Hawaii. We booked multiple taxi rides during our trip to Hawaii in June 2021. Christine in the office was so nice and helpful. She lined us up with the same driver for all of our different taxi pick ups and drop offs. Kevin was an amazing driver and helpful tour guide! He was always on time if not early. All of our taxi rides went just as planned. Amazing service. We will definitely request Kevin again when we go! Would highly recommend Charley's Taxi.

I used their MediCab service; the hospital booked it for my ride home. It was my first MediCab service experience. The driver (I'm sorry I don't know her name), was very friendly, helpful, engaging, patient, courteous, knowledgeable and concerned for my safety. Their rate is very reasonable; you cannot put a price on safety and excellent customer service! I remember Charley's Taxi when I was younger. Not only would I use their services again, but I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Charley's to anyone needing transportation service. MAHALO for your PERSONAL SERVICE WITH ALOHA that you've always provided,

This business bills itself as the only taxi company that is allowed on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam. As we approached the front gate, my driver nervously asked me "Do I need an ID to get on here?" The answer is, "Of course, it's a military installation." I was unceremoniously dropped off at the gate, and had to drag two suitcases for over a mile to catch a flight at the passenger terminal. Epic fail.

This message is for a taxi company that is operating on Oahu:
Beware if you don't get a charleys taxi:
HI Korea Taxis are not labeled so look for charleys taxi labeling for better service.
With HI Korea Taxi, I Could not understand driver with heavy accent. Could not even say "salt lake". Driver tried his best but pronounced "sa-le". Which caused confusion from the very get go.
He was charging me (on the clock as I saw money tick upward) while he fumbled for 5 minutes trying to type in my destination address. He could not type address into his google maps as he was mistyping

Staff very personable. Always arrive early and check in. They wait patiently and love when you are ready. They were recommended by our Hilton Timeshare. They know the city extremely well. They are very busy around 4-7pm so prearrange transportation if you can.
Caution. Sometimes you are not able to book through the app (near the pier and the rental car places on Nimitz near the airport.

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 didn't show up! We called them multiple times and they said 'there's an accident, you'll have to wait 1-2 hours' while being exceptionally rude.
While standing helplessly at the airport I noticed Charlie's taxi's 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

We had their VIP service from airport to Waikiki hotel. The total fare is 135 plus 15% tip. The only star is for the nice customer service lady, Christine, over the phone. She is professional and nice. The VIP experience is 0 star. Due to Covid, windows have to be down as it's company policy. And it was noise, hot and super uncomfortable the entire drive from airport to our hotel. Big sign in the car showing you have to wear mask. So hot summer day in Hawaii, crowded freeway with so many cars...have to wear mask and windows have to be open ( I saw none of the taxis on the road have their

First off, Charley's answered their phone. All the others were just a recording. The young lady that answered the phone was very polite and accommodating. Those two first impressions were crucial for me.
Lee, our driver, text me to let me know he arrived early. That was a good feeling knowing you need to be at the airport on time. I appreciated Lee's friendly welcoming. He was efficient and was willing to conversation with us along with a sense of humor.
The van was very clean. (Very important!)
I would highly recommend.

Charleys taxi is saved in my phone. We spent a lot of time to and from Hawaii. Flying into Honolulu Charley's will always be how we move around. They are always always right on time, their vehicles are clean, the drivers are professional and we always feel safe. I ended up being in a Hawaii on Christmas Day needing a ride to the wipeout and guess who was opened and willing to take me straight to the airport? Charley's. My family and friends (we lived in the Marshall Islands for almost 3 years so we travelled back and forth to Hono 4 5 times a year) all used Charley's. I can&apos
