Useful tips for getting a taxi at Paris CDG Airport

  1. Airport taxis in Paris offer fixed fares for specific destinations. Before you set off, double-check the amount with your driver and check that the fixed price is displayed on the taximeter.
  2. If your final destination lies outside the center, a taximeter will calculate your fare. This means your final fare will be based on the distance traveled and time of day, with a minimum fare of €8.
  3. Surcharges may be added to your final fare, such as a €3 pickup charge, the cost of any tolls throughout your journey, and an extra charge of €4 per additional passenger.
  4. Taxis at Paris Airport (CDG) and in the city charge a night tariff between 19:00 and 07:00.
  5. For metered rides, always check the taximeter is reset before starting your trip.
  6. Charles de Gaulle Airport taxi waiting times can be lengthy during airport rush hour. We recommend booking an airport transfer in advance to avoid hanging around at the airport.
  7. Never accept rides from unlicensed drivers offering their services inside or outside the terminals.
  8. Keep your receipt in case you need to file a complaint or claim a lost item.
  9. Tipping is not customary in Paris. However, locals typically round up the fare if the service is excellent.
  10. Not all airport taxis in Paris accept card payments. So remember to ask before setting off. It’s also wise to have some cash in the local currency (€) just in case.
  11. Your CDG Airport taxi driver probably won’t speak fluent English. To avoid any miscommunication, write down the address in French.
  12. If you think you have been scammed or overcharged, write down the taxi driver’s name, ID number, and your taxi number. You can then contact the taxi company or the tourist police to file a complaint.

A Paris Airport taxi to hotel

Touching down at the airport is just the start, as you still have to make it to your hotel before you can genuinely begin enjoying yourself. Traveling through a new city can be fraught with difficulties. Dealing with long queues, lugging heavy bags, and deciphering a foreign language can make what should be an exciting occasion quite taxing.

Instead, consider pre-booking a taxi from Paris Airport. Or better yet, book your ride with a reliable provider like Welcome Pickups. That way, you can avoid the headache of dealing with public transport or taxi waiting times and secure a stress-free journey straight to your hotel’s doorstep.
