Taxis
Taxi stands can be found near major hotels and next the Drama theatre just outside Old Town, but grabbing a taxi on the street, especially those parked in Old Town, is the best way to get ripped off. Always check the prices first, which should posted on the taxi’s right rear window. These consist of a base fare of usually €2.20 - 3.20 plus two per-kilometre rates (one for daytime, one for night) which should normally be around €0.35 - 0.96. When in doubt, you can agree on a price to your destination with the driver before you get in. Ordering a taxi by phone is always the best strategy, as you’ll avoid the dishonest taxis that prey on tourists. Here is a list of taxi companies along with their daytime base fares and per-kilometre rates. Night time rates can be about 20% more.
