Forum Question Posted By: Replies:
Sofia Taxis from the airport
Posted: Tue March 11, 2008 09:29 PM UTC
Hi, similar to the last questions - I am arriving in Sofia with my husband at about 11pm at night at Sofia airport. Can anyone tell me how late the buses run into town? I realise there are also taxis and it sounds like I should book only from the OK Supertrans taxi desk if I don't want to be ripped off! The thing is I am wondering if this taxi desk will be open at that time of night? Does anyone know?

Thanks!

Hi,

I arrived back in January with Wizz Air on the late flight and the taxi office was open. There is some additional info that might be useful at the following website:

I'd give you a more general tip: whenever and where ever you need to use a taxi in Sofia, pay attention to the tariff of the taxi. You will see it in written at the back side windows of the taxi. The approximate price is about 0.56-0.60 leva per km - during the day 06-22h and about 0.70 leva per km - by night. Just have a look at the tariff.

p.s. Thanks for your help everyone! I have emailed OKsupertrans and they say their office will be open so sounds like I'll be ok.
Many thanks.
