Taxi

Taxis are readily available at the many taxi ranks around the city, or from your hotel.  Just ask the hotel reception or concierge to arrange a taxi for you.  You can also book online through one of the many taxi companies' websites.   If you have any special needs, please request at the time of booking.  Alternatively you can just flag a taxi on the street by waving your arm!  Vacant taxis will have the light on top of the car lit up.

Please be aware that passengers are required to pay for any bridge or road tolls along the way, which will be added to the fare.  For example, if you are travelling from the airport to the North Shore over the Harbour Bridge or through the Harbour Tunnel, you will be charged the Bridge Toll (A$3.00 as at 23 December 2005) in addition to the fare displayed on the metre. You may also be charged a pick up fee if you have ordered the taxi.
