Why AlloTaxi in Nice
The leading taxi service on the Côte d'Azur
Our local drivers know Nice inside out. Corniche coast roads, the A8 motorway, Old Nice or the Côte d'Azur airport: they adapt to the traffic. International visitors welcome — Nice (Nizza to our Italian customers) is our daily ground.
Prefecture-licensed drivers
All our drivers are licensed by the Alpes-Maritimes prefecture. They hold the official licence (ADS). They know Nice and the Riviera well.
Regulated metered fares
In town, the fare runs on the official Alpes-Maritimes meter. For the airport and long-distance journeys, you receive a flat rate before departure. The price does not change with demand.
Knowledge of the corniches
Three possible routes towards Monaco, Menton, Èze or Villefranche: Basse Corniche (fast), Moyenne Corniche (scenic) or the A8. The driver chooses based on traffic and your preference.
