If you’re travelling as a group on the Mornington Peninsula, one of the first questions is simple: how many people actually fit in a maxi taxi? Our Maxi Taxi comfortably seats up to 11 passengers with room for luggage, which makes it the go to option for families, wedding parties, work groups and anyone who doesn’t want to split up into two or three separate cars.

Maxi Taxi Seating, the Real Number

Up to 11 passengers fit in a single Maxi Taxi, all travelling together with one driver and one pickup time. That’s enough for a full extended family heading to the airport, a hens or bucks group doing the rounds of local wineries, or a sports team getting to a match on time.

Maxi Taxi vs Booking Multiple Sedans

A standard sedan seats up to 4 passengers, so a group of 8 to 11 people would otherwise need 3 separate cars, 3 separate drivers, and 3 separate pickup times to coordinate. A single Maxi Taxi keeps everyone together, arriving and leaving at the same time, which matters most for flights, weddings and anything with a fixed start time.

Luggage Space

The Maxi Taxi is built with genuine luggage capacity in mind, not just seats. Airport groups travelling with suitcases, golf bags or wine purchases from a Peninsula cellar door still have room to fit everyone and their bags in the one vehicle.

When Locals and Visitors Book a Maxi Taxi

  • Group airport transfers, especially families and holidaymakers flying out together
  • Hens and bucks parties doing a winery run through Red Hill, Merricks or Moorooduc
  • Wedding guests moving between a ceremony and reception venue
  • Corporate groups and staff events across the Peninsula
  • Sports teams and school groups needing one vehicle instead of several

Booking a Maxi Taxi

Maxi Taxi bookings are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across the Mornington Peninsula. We recommend booking at least 48 hours ahead for airport runs or weekend trips, since maxi vehicles are in higher demand than standard sedans. Same day bookings may be available, call 0433 238 017 to check.
