Sometimes when you are abroad you can find yourself in a situation where you need a taxi but there is no taxi around and you can’t call one because you don’t speak the local language… Well, don’t you worry! Here is list of most used apps to get around with a taxi in Brazil:
1- Easy Taxi
This is a free Taxi booking app that has gained over 17 million users and is available in 170 cities worldwide. To utilize the service, you need to confirm your ride and then pay for it within the Easy Taxi app. Once you book a ride you should see the taxi’s plate number and phone number appear on the map as well, making it easy for you to pick out both the car and the driver.
2- 99taxis
This free taxi booking app with services available in more than 150 Brazilian cities. It is also very popular in our country and it works just like Easy Taxi.
3- WayTaxi
This also free taxi booking app has features such as route price calculator and driver location display and it works just like 99taxis and Easytaxis. You can also use this service in your web navigator.
To use this kind of service to get a taxi is also handy because usually the drivers registered in those apps are very careful with their reputation because the passengers can rate the service and it will be visible for every other user. Another useful tip is to previously calculate the taxi fare using this taxi ride calculator so you will know in advance approximately how much it will cost you.
