By Táxi

Taxis in Lisbon are beige or black and green. Usually have the word TAXI on top. Taxi fares are calculated on the basis of an initial flat charge of around €2,50 and the distance is metered from then on. In addition, if the taxi has been called out, rather than hailed in the street there is a small surcharge. If luggage is carried, a surcharge is charged. Meters are displayed in all licensed taxis, along with the driver's identity card.
