There's some debate about which local taxi service has been around longest. The answer, apparently, lies in the longtime Redmond phone number, which makes City Cab the oldest even though it's had more than one owner and name. City Cab services Central Oregon from Bend with nonsmoking Chrysler Caravans. The best time to reach someone is during regular business hours. Weddings, proms, anniversaries and VIPs make up the main market for Executive.
Limos have a two-hour minimum.
Executive also has a seven-passenger van that's good for a few people with lots of gear. These folks answer the phone from 9 AM to 11 PM, and the company's been around six years. This is a classic taxi service that operates 24 hours a day. Based in Bend, Owl covers Central Oregon with metered sedans. Many of his customers are senior citizens, and not only does he take them places, he'll also pick up groceries for them.
