TRAVEL TIPS

Taxi Travel

Fares vary among companies. If you are heading to the airport from a hotel, ask about the flat rate, which varies according to destination; otherwise you'll be charged by the mile (which works out to $20 or so from any downtown location). Taxi stands are at shopping centers and hotels; otherwise you must call and reserve a cab. For on-demand private transportation, Uber is readily available throughout San Diego County with competitive rates up to 40% less than that of a taxi. Travelers with the Uber app can submit a trip request through their smartphone. The companies listed don't serve all areas of San Diego County. If you're going somewhere other than downtown, ask if the company serves that area.
