Taking a taxi in Split: 6 tips

How to recognise a licensed taxi, agree the price and avoid surprises.

Updated:

  1. A licensed taxi is marked. It has a TAXI roof sign, a meter and a displayed tariff.
  2. Agree the price before the ride. For longer routes ask for a fixed price; in the city rides usually go by the meter.
  3. Say how many of you there are and how much luggage you have. The driver can then send the right vehicle.
  4. Save the driver number. If you were happy, the same driver can take you back.
  5. Ask about card payment in advance. Not every driver accepts cards.
  6. Expect summer traffic. Roads around the ferry port and towards the airport get busy.
