What to know
Tenby taxis are licensed by Pembrokeshire County Council, not a Tenby town council. Ranked or hailed hackneys should not exceed this maximum table.
If you pre-book a minicab, that is private hire — licensed, but not this council table. Agree the price when you book.
Hackney vs private hire
| Type | Typical cost | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| Metered hackney | This table | Rank or hail; tariff applies |
| Pre-booked private hire | Agreed when booking | Airport runs, accounts, apps — still licensed |
