Ahead of a surge in the number of major events hosted by the Principality from April onwards, the Principality’s official taxi service, Taxis de Monaco, has announced that it will be adding 28 seasonal drivers – and their electric vehicles – to its team.
Taxis de Monaco, the only taxi service permitted to operate within the Principality’s borders, is set to expand its fleet over the coming months, growing from 95 to more than 120 vehicles during peak season, in a bid to meet the demands of the population and visitors.
The Monaco Government has confirmed that the seasonal fleet is 100% electric, in line with its commitments to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Eight of the 28 seasonal taxis are already out and about on Monaco’s roads, having officially joined the service on 1st April. A further 10 will be added on 15th April before the company ramps up its capabilities for a third time on 1st May with an extra 10 vehicles.
These taxis, which will be easily identifiable thanks to their pristine white paintwork and Taxis de Monaco branding, will remain part of the fleet throughout the summer, with a gradual reduction in their number between the end of September and the start of November.
Unlike in most places, Monaco’s taxi service offers flat rates for trips within the Principality (€18 without stops or excessive traffic) and to its neighbouring French communes (€25 under the same conditions).
During peak times, such as the Monaco Grand Prix, the fleet will also be permitted to carry passengers to Nice Côte d’Azur Airport, Gare de Nice Ville, and other locations in the city of Nice, as well as to Menton.
These official taxis can be picked up at 12 locations across Monaco. Click here for the map of their locations.
