Taxi Tips & Safety

Find official taxis at the designated ranks outside Arrivals at Terminal 1 and Terminal 3. Look for white cars with a TAXI sign on the roof and license numbers on doors and inside. Join the queue to avoid unofficial offers.

Avoid scams by ignoring drivers soliciting inside the terminal or parking lots, who may charge double. Insist on the fixed 55 euro fare to city center and refuse meter use for central trips. Use cash or card as accepted.

Payment is cash or major cards at official taxis. For safety, note the license number, share ride details with someone, and keep valuables secure. Pre-book private transfers if queues are long.
