HAIL the locals first, is the message Yarra Valley Taxis director Nassim Elyateem is keen to get out the residents across the Yarra Valley.
“We have a full fleet of nine taxis now servicing the Yarra Valley along the Melba, Maroondah and Warburton Highways, and we are very keen to provide the type of service we know people want and deserve,” Mr Elyateem said.
Mr Elyateem acknowledged there had been problems in the past that negatively reflected on the service, but said they had been rectified and that Yarra Valley Taxis had full accreditation from the Victorian Taxi Directorate.
“That accreditation requires us to provide a very high standard of service to our clients, and we are very pleased to be able to say that is what we are now able to do,” he said.
Whether it is a short trip into Healesville, or a longer trip, perhaps to Ringwood, Melbourne, or the airport, Mr Elyateem said the local taxi service, with local drivers and local knowledge, is there to meet that need efficiently and with a high standard of service.
“We are able and ready to give our best to our local community,” he said.
“I am always open to feed-back from our clients and can assure any complaints will be dealt with fairly and quickly according to the Victorian Taxi Directorate requirements,” he said.
