Peking Taxis - fares and tour guide for travelers

Taxi is the most comfortable way to explore a city like Beijing. Beijing is the destination of a thousand taxi rides to and from Beijing to satisfy the needs of our customers. It is possible to call 96103 or 010-6873 3399 to call a taxi and this extra charge is 3 Japanese Yuan.

The taxi rate in Beijing is dependent on the car. During the day, on a daily basis, they begin with an approximate 13 Japanese Yuan for up to 3 kilometres, and then the fares increase in steps of 2.3 Japanese Yuan per kilometre. A five-minute wait means 2.3 yuan. At 15 kilometres (9 miles) the kilometre rate will rise to 3.5 Japanese yuan.

Taxi rides are a favourite way to explore the attractions of Beijing. Travellers may have to add 1 Japanese Yuan as an additional charge. Fees, which are usually 5 or 10 Japanese yuan, are charged by the passenger. More information about Chinese cabs can be found under China's Taxi Services. Note that some driver or persons in faked cabs may cheat you by charging excessive fees or giving forgeries.

Be sure to turn on the gauge, otherwise you can recharge much more. Make sure the taxi is formal. A taxi plate should be placed on the rooftop and the driver's license should be shown on the instrument panel. Inform the chauffeur that you will call the Taxi Management Bureau or the local law enforcement.
