Tel Aviv-Yafo Taxi fare from airport?
Posted: Sat November 3, 2007 02:30 PM UTC
Hi.

Five of us will be arriving in Tel Aviv at 9pm on Tuesday (06/11).

Can anyone advise what the taxi fare from the airport to Hayarkon Street would be?

As we will need two cars I am trying to work out whether it will be cheaper to book a transfer in a larger vehicle?

Thanks in advance.

Depending on the amount of luggage you're carrying you might want to consider the train.
There are trains direct from the airport to Tel Aviv Mercaz (Centre) station at 21:46, 22:01, 22:23, 22:40, 22:46, 23:01 and 23:23

Greetings,
The taxi transportation from the airport here is fairly well organized, with a choice between list price and fare meter, though you have to decide in advance. I can not see from your card where are you from (or any other details), so as a general recommendation - stick to the list price, which is around 100 Shekel (approx $25) or less. There are also larger cars available, so I suggest you to inquire at the taxi stand.
Enjoy the stay here,
Marius

There are bigger taxis you can take. They are minivans which should be big enough for 5 persons plus luggage.

For 5 people, the taxi would be probably be about the same price as taking a train+bus.

An important notice on the website of Ben Gurion Airport, Israel: It is recommended not to use random Taxi services.

You can't really control that. When you leave the terminal there is a line of taxis. You get the first taxi in the line. It could be one of the "official" taxis working with the airport, or it can be a taxi from a different station which took someone to the airport and is looking not to go back empty.
