Pula taxi prices
Pula taxi drivers calculate their fares using a taximeter, so the fare will vary depending on the distance travelled, the time of day, and the presence or absence of luggage.
The day tariff is €1.80 per km. This rate runs from 05:00 to 22:00.
The night tariff is an extra 20% between 22:00 and 05:00, which also applies on public holidays.
The extra charge for luggage is between €0.50 and €1.
There is a minimum tariff of €4.95 regardless of the time of day.
Generally, a taxi in Pula won’t offer set-rate fares. However, if you are travelling outside of the city to nearby towns like Rovinj, Rijeka or Umag, the taxi may offer you a fixed rate.
If you’d like a set-rate fare for all of your transport in Pula, consider booking a private transfer with a top-rated service like Welcome Pickups in advance.

Wheelchair-accessible taxis in Pula
Wheelchair-accessible taxis are rare in Pula. Most Pula taxis are four-seater sedans that are not equipped to carry wheelchairs. If you need an adapted taxi, it’s best to pre-book a private transfer to ensure the availability of an appropriate vehicle. Contacting a local travel agency or tour operator and specifying your requirements would be a good place to start.
Pula taxi safety and complaints
Pula is generally considered quite safe with a low crime rate. As a tourist, you’re more likely to encounter issues on public buses than in taxis. Having said that, unlicensed taxi drivers are common, so it’s essential to avoid unofficial drivers and only use taxi vehicles where you can see the taximeter and rate card before starting your journey.
