the only source I know is a freedom of information request to NYC's Taxi & Limousine Commission made by FiveThirtyEight. The data are avaible on this Github repo.

Part of the data are also directly available through an API on OpenDataSoft if you prefer ;). Disclaimer: I work for OpenDataSoft.

There are not a lot of trip details but it's a good start. Hope it will help though.

Cheers

Your answer actually describes data for UBER rides, which was obtained by TLC and shared with 538. – philshem Mar 10 '16 at 18:57

The accepted answer is actually for UBER rides. The NYC Taxi data was FOIA'd by Chris Whong in 2014. (It's a fun story to read, too.)

You can now get the data directly from the Taxi & Limousine Commission (TLC) - LINK
