How much is a Melbourne taxi fare?
With 13cabs, fares are calculated using predicted trip time, distance, traffic and tolls, so you’ll always get a clear taxi fare estimate upfront. Simply enter your pick-up and drop-off locations in the App or online to check your fare. Your fare is based on government-regulated metered rates, so it never surges at peak times, on public holidays or late at night.
You can also choose our Fixed Fare Taxi option to lock in a fixed price before your trip begins. There are no hidden surcharges, late fees or cancellation fees, so your travel is straightforward and stress-free.
For popular routes such as the Melbourne CBD to Melbourne Airport run, you can lock in your price before you set off. This makes us a dependable alternative to rideshare for travellers who want price certainty.
