  • Unlicensed taxi drivers are utterly impervious to decency, honesty or value for money! Don't ever, ever use one, or kiss your budget goodbye! Luckily, most sites are easily walkable from a central hotel, so apart from arriving and departing you hopefully won't need one. If you need a taxi to take you to the airport, ask your hotel to help. At least you can agree the price up front, and budget accordingly.
