Why book AlloTaxi at the station
Built for international travellers arriving by train
Eurostar from London, TGV from Lyon, Thalys from Brussels: stepping off the train into a foreign city is hectic. We make the next leg simple.
Driver waits with name sign
Pre-book and your driver waits in the arrival hall holding a sign with your name. Provide the train number at booking — we track it in real time and adjust automatically if delayed. No frantic taxi-rank queue after a long Eurostar trip.
English-speaking drivers
Most Paris drivers, especially around Gare du Nord (Eurostar) and Gare de Lyon (international TGV), speak conversational English. Request English preference at booking and we match you with the most fluent driver available.
Fixed Paris ↔ airport fare
If you continue from the station to CDG or Orly, the fare is government-fixed (right bank or left bank flat rate, identical 7 days a week, luggage and tolls included). No surge pricing, no surprise on the meter — unlike many private hire alternatives.
Bus lane access
Paris taxis are authorised to use bus lanes within the city, which is a major advantage over private hire vehicles. On a tight TGV-to-flight connection, this can save you 10-20 minutes during peak hours.
Card payment standard
Every Paris taxi has a mandatory card payment terminal (contactless, Apple Pay, Google Pay) plus cash. Detailed receipt for your expense report — useful for business travellers needing proof of trip.
Family & group friendly
Free child seats on request (carrier, booster, group 1/2/3). For 5+ passengers arriving on the same train, our 6-8 seat van keeps your group together — no splitting across multiple vehicles.
