Hiring
Taxis
|
| |
|
|
|
|
Taxis at airports and railway stations normally
run on pre-fixed rates. One-way fares can be expensive; it may be
better to hire a taxi from a regular taxi operator in the town and
retain it for the duration of your stay. This can normally be organised
through your hotel.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
If you need cars with seat belts (highly recommended),
please do not hire an Ambassador car as these normally do not have
seat belts. Ask for one of the modern cars like Tata Indica, Maruti
Esteem or Hyundai Accent.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
If you are a foreigner, it is strongly recommended
that you do not drive in India. The driving conditions are very
different from those in advanced countries and taxis are very affordable
(around USD 25 per day).
