Taxi drivers are all crooks (unless you call first and order a taxi)!!!!!!!!!!!

That being said don't ever just jump in a taxi and expect to not get taken advantage of.....ripping off tourists is the favorite pastime of these drivers!

Rules of engagement:
1) always ask the price first
2) make sure the meter is running and ask for a receipt
3) don't assume the meter is accurate....they often rig them to over charge. If the price seems high, then it probably is
4) to save money please call one of these two taxi companies listed below and you will get a fair price

THE CHEAPEST OPTION IS UBER!!!  The great thing about uber is that you can use uber anywhere in the world if you have the application.  I highly recommend it and have saved a ton.  If you are first time user then if you download from my link below you get a credit applied to your account for your first uber taxi ride.....it is about $10 of free rides!!!  You must click on the UBER icon below first and sign up to get credit, and then you can download the application in the app store or google play.  If you are a first time user you can use this link -->HERE<-- and get your first ride free!

If you are at the airport, the only taxi companies allowed in the taxi pick-up area are ones with special permits which will cost about 600kc to the center.  I recommend calling and requesting my above recommended company pick you up at either the Terminal 1 or Terminal 2 car drop-off area.  You just take the elevator going up one level instead of exiting the airport on the street level.  I have never paid more than 380kc when doing this.  They pick you up within 10 minutes and are honest prices.


Estimated prices from:

Hlavni Nadrazi (main train station): under 60kc
Airport: 600kc or less.....if you use call Nejlevnejsi taxi and meet them at the taxi drop-off area which is one level above the taxis on the ground level you can get a taxi for about 400kc.

Keep in mind that 5 minutes of a taxi is roughly 100kc maximum, so keep that in mind during your stay here and this will help you to estimate your price.

Be smart and save money by calling to order a taxi!
