Why private transfers are better value

While taxis may seem cheaper on paper, consider the hidden costs:

**No price guarantee** — meters can be "broken" and prices negotiated upward

**No flight tracking** — if your flight is delayed, the taxi won't wait

**Vehicle quality varies** — from modern to very old vehicles

**No meet & greet** — you have to find the taxi rank yourself

**Language barriers** — not all drivers speak English or French

Tips to avoid taxi scams

**Always agree on a price before getting in**

**Ask for the meter** — say "compteur" in French

**Know the approximate distance** to your destination

**Have small bills ready** — drivers may claim they can't give change

**Book a private transfer** for peace of mind and a guaranteed price
