タクシー
Unlike in New York, London or Berlin, you cannot hail a taxi when it is moving – if you try it you will probably be ignored. Krakow has its own system when it comes to taxis.
Taxi ranks generally charge 30% more than a taxi service you call directly. Marked taxis are considered reliable, well regulated, affordable and honest. Conversely, unmarked taxis, found near some hotels and the railway station, are unreliable and tend to overcharge.
Unfortunately, most taxi telephone centre operators are not able to speak English, but if you are somehow able to communicate your address a taxi will arrive within a few minutes. Taxi meters start at 5 PLN with an additional charge of 2-3 PLN per kilometre but it is always a good idea to check how much the journey will cost before entering the taxi. Rates are higher after 22:00 and on sundays.
