Taxi

In Hyderabad, hailing a taxi is a breeze, with both traditional cabs and ride-sharing apps offering convenient options for getting around the city. Metered taxis are available, but for a seamless experience, consider using popular ride-sharing apps like Uber and Ola. For those craving a quintessentially local experience, auto-rickshaws are a lively alternative, zipping through the city's narrow lanes and bustling markets. These rickshaws typically don't have meters, so it's wise to negotiate the fare beforehand or insist on using the metre.
