Taxi to Croom

    Who does the cheapest taxis to Croom from Limerick?

    Are there any set price taxi companies around and where could I find their fares?

    I read here about the Swifty app and that you can check fares on it but I don't see anywhere in the app that I can check fares.

    Is there not enough people from the area going home late on a Friday/Saturday night that a bus could be organised?

    Thanks in advance

    Not trying to have a go at you, but seriously....would you fancy getting even 12 (or so) drunk people (who aren't even out together) to meet up at a certain time and place on a Saturday Night ?
    If so, perhaps you could book a Minibus yourself and be prepared to cover the cost....I wouldn't :).



    Limerick to Croom is around €40 (+ any extras) at night. With 2 people that's €20 each. Price a room at Limerick City Hotel (old Jury's Inn)or The Pier Hotel. It works out considerably more expensive.


    There are no Set/Fixed Price Taxi Companies in Limerick (or practically anywhere in Ireland). All Taxis charge the Meter Rate. The site below will give you an Estimate.

    To be fair, I just asked the question being unsure of the demand.

    I got an email response from a taxi company saying a driver would do it for €25.

    Not sure if 25 would be accurate late on a Saturday night?
