You can find taxiranks at almost all the important tourist spots, and in front of or near most major hotels. Please be aware that, officially, you are not obliged to take the first taxi in the row. The liberalization rules that were introduced a few years ago, have it that taxi fares can be negociated between driver and customer, and that the customer can choose which taxi he/she takes. Since the quality of both cars and drivers have deteriorated since the liberalization, it may especially be wise to judge those before boarding.
In everyday practice, however, drivers get very upset if you do not take the first taxi in row. Also, instead of you choosing, many drivers will refuse you if you need to go just a short distance. Because of the mentioned quality issues, we recommend chauffeured car services for scheduled rides, such as airport transfers. These are harldy more expensive, also. | |
