The vehicle

Premier Taxis Salisbury drives every shuttle on this journey, in a white Vauxhall Vivaro with 8 seats. The fare is for the whole vehicle and is shared between everyone on it.
Your trip page shows the driver, the number plate and how far away the vehicle is. To ask anything before you book, call us on 01722 672136.

If your plans or your train change

More than 2 hours before pickup, you can change to another shuttle for free. Within 2 hours, including when your train is late, your seat is paid for. If you miss your shuttle, you can hop on a later shuttle with free seats at no extra cost; if no later shuttle has free seats, you book a new one at the normal price.
