With over 25 years in the transport industry, Silver Sherpa began as a courier and transitioned to private hire in 2005, establishing a chauffeur service in 2011. In 2009, we partnered with Offa's Dyke booking agents to conduct luggage transfers along the central section of Offa's Dyke Path while managing local taxi services through our private hire business.
Building a reputation for outstanding airport transfer services, we shifted our focus from local taxi services to specializing in airport and long-distance transfers. We take pride in our luggage transfer services and have established strong relationships with local accommodations and tourism providers. Today, we collaborate with major suppliers and handle numerous private bookings from both UK and international visitors.
Our founder has deep roots in the Offa's Dyke Path, having been born and raised in Knighton for 30 years before relocating to Welshpool. He continues to travel daily between Knighton and Llangollen for luggage transfers, enjoying breathtaking views from his office window and witnessing the vibrant farming and wildlife that enrich this stunning landscape.
Sharing the wonders of Mid-Wales has always been a passion of our founder. In 2023, he introduced tours of the Mid-Wales and Shropshire countryside to enhance visitor experiences. This initiative arose from market research and feedback from walkers who expressed a desire for rest days to explore the area. Many visitors lack transportation and feel they are missing out on the rich history and stunning landscapes that Wales and Shropshire offer.
As a local company, we prioritize informed decisions that protect our environment. This commitment has led us to utilize hybrid vehicles for our transfers and tours. While fully electric options are not yet feasible due to the current infrastructure in Mid-Wales, we remain optimistic that technological advancements will provide viable solutions in the future.
Silver Sherpa may be a newly named venture, but it is backed by years of experience from a dedicated team working diligently behind the scenes. From managing bookings and correspondence to route planning and luggage coordination, we pride ourselves on every aspect of our service. Our commitment to excellence drives us to go the extra mile, ensuring our clients enjoy an exceptional experience they will cherish.
