Taxis

Taxis are all painted beige, or green and black, and are in plentiful supply. Metered around the city centre, they provide a relatively inexpensive means of getting from A to B. If the trip takes you outside the city, then the meter will be switched to a higher pay level. Trips between 10.00 pm and 6.00 am, and on Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays also have a higher fare. The taxi fare from the Airport to the ISEL should cost around 10.00 € for a passenger with luggage.
