At the airport, drivers will quote 60–80 BOB. Negotiate down to 40 BOB by pointing at the small town centre. Pay only when you arrive.
You can’t hail taxis on the street after dark. Save the number for Radio Taxi Robore (+591-3-9622202) into your phone. Late-night rides cost 10 BOB — agree the price before getting in.
