Havana Airport taxi prices

Havana Airport taxis are equipped with meters, and the fare to central Havana typically ranges from €25 to 30 (CUP 671 to 800), depending on traffic and your final destination. The journey to Old Havana takes around 30 minutes, while trips to other popular areas like Vedado or Miramar may take a bit longer. For peace of mind, it’s always a good idea to confirm the fare with the driver before starting your journey, as not all taxi drivers automatically start the meter running when you get into the car.

For a competitive fixed fare with no surprise fees, you can pre-book your Havana Airport taxi with a trusted service like Welcome Pickups.

Where to get a Havana Airport taxi?

Licensed taxis are yellow, often with the “Cuba Taxi” sign, and they are generally reliable and safe for tourists. You’ll see a variety of car types, from classic American cars to small vehicles locals call “coco-taxis” due to their round shape.

Useful tips for getting a taxi from Havana Airport

  1. Always use official, licensed taxis to ensure safety and fair pricing. Avoid accepting rides from unlicensed drivers who may approach you in the Arrivals Hall.
  2. Having a basic understanding of the route to your destination can be helpful. This way, you can feel more confident during the ride and ensure you’re not taken on an unnecessarily long route.
  3. Official taxis at Havana Airport are yellow with a ‘Taxi’ sign on the roof.
  4. For destinations outside the center of Havana, your final fare will be calculated using a taximeter, based on the distance traveled. You can also choose to negotiate a price prior to starting your journey.
  5. Airport taxis in Havana may accept card payments but many drivers will not. Remember to check with your driver before starting the ride unless you booked online.
  6. Taxis in Havana often have limited change, so it’s a good idea to carry small bills in local currency to avoid any issues when paying your fare.
  7. Before starting your trip, double-check that the driver understands your destination. Showing the address on your phone or a map can prevent any misunderstandings.
  8. Tipping is not expected in Havana, however, you can round up the fare if you especially enjoyed the service.
  9. Remember to request a receipt and keep it safe in case you need to file a complaint or claim a lost item.
  10. Pre-booking a taxi from the airport in Havana guarantees a meet and greet, no waiting times, and easy payments.

A Havana Airport taxi to your hotel

Finding your way through a new city can be stressful. Spending the first hours of your trip trying to use rudimentary Spanish, waiting in lines made longer by rush-hour arrivals, and managing heavy bags while making sure you don’t get lost or overcharged is not how anyone wants a trip to start.

If you book a door-to-door Havana Airport taxi, you can be sure that the trip to your hotel will be smooth and seamless. Enjoy added privacy, plenty of luggage space, and a comfortable ride to your hotel in Havana.
