I am 20 something female and will be moving to the capital in 3 months. I have a few questions about taxis. I will need to use taxis until I decide if I am going to buy a car or not.....anyway...

What is the best, safest, and most respected Taxi service in the capital? I would like to get a card of a company that I can call when I need a taxi, rather than taking one from the street.

How about using the same taxi driver consistantly? Is it a good idea? I see threads where people say they have used the same taxi driver for 2-3 years, but most seem to be males who say this....Is it safe for a woman...americans???:paranoid:

How far will taxis take you? Will they take you all over the city? What about to the beach?

And finially, how long will a taxi driver wait for you? For example, if you go to dinner or shopping?

Thanks in advance.....;)

Apollo is what most people use. I suggest that if you get a driver who seems reliable, keep his unit no and cellphone so you can ask for him or call him directly.
