Taxi

Taxi

Taxis are numerous and can be flagged down on the street, picked up at ranks, or booked by phone or from hotel receptions. Taxi drivers are usually reluctant to turn on the meter (or to admit to speaking English). Insist on the meter, or agree on the fare before boarding. Standard (red) taxis are more common but not air-conditioned. Air-conditioned taxis are more comfortable but also more expensive. Shared taxis are used for longer journeys, including trips to the mainland.
