There are 4 types of taxis: regular, international, deluxe and jumbo. International taxis have been introduced for the convenience of foreign tourists because the drivers can communicate in English.

Deluxe taxis are approximately 40-50% more expensive than regular taxis, but are more luxurious vehicles. Jumbo taxis are vans that can accommodate up to 8 passengers and are the same price as deluxe taxies. Taxi stands for each type of taxi are separated and are located outside the arrival terminal. You can book a taxi through the 24-hour call centre (tel: 1644-2255).
