Kashaneh Guest House & Hotel & Motel Toronto

If there is no public transit or you need to go somewhere quickly, you can hire a taxi or cab. You can call a taxi company and ask them to pick you up at the address you give them. You can even ask them to pick you up at a specific time. To find a taxi, look up the word Taxis in the yellow pages of the telephone book.

You can also hail a taxi in the street. Stand on the sidewalk and wave at a taxi that has no passengers in it, when it comes towards you. The cost of taking a taxi depends on how far you go. The price appears on a meter in the front beside the driver. The meter will display a minimum charge when you get in the car.

Airport taxis sometimes charge a flat rate instead of using a meter. For example, a taxi ride from the airport to any location in the city centre might be $45. Ask the driver how much the trip will cost before you get in the car.
