Your taxi in Caen
William the Conqueror's city and D-Day memorial, Caen connects the Ouistreham ferry port to the SNCF station and the Memorial. D-Day beach excursions (Omaha, Juno, Sword) and port – centre transfers with English-speaking service for British visitors.
Booking a taxi in Caen means choosing between a metered ride and a fixed price quoted before departure. 120 partner drivers cover the city, for an average wait of 6 min. The most frequent pick-ups are in Centre-ville, Beaulieu and Vaucelles. The most requested route, Caen station — Centre-ville, is offered at €6–€10. The metered fare is not set freely: it follows the department's prefectoral order, which caps the pick-up charge, the price per kilometre and the waiting hour, with a higher rate from seven in the evening to ten in the morning as well as on Sundays and public holidays. The meter shows the letter of the current rate, which lets you check it. The price booked in advance includes luggage and the driver's approach and does not change in traffic. Card payment can never be refused, and a receipt is issued automatically from twenty-five euros.
