Transports in Fes – Collective taxis
There are two types of taxis in Fes – the “petits taxis”, small and red transporting up to 3 people, and the larger ones, supposedly to 4, but… well… we can always squeeze a dozen more. They tend to be metered and are not too expensive. Both types of taxis are usually shared and drivers often wait until the taxi is full before departing. Verify carefully if the meter is turned on, otherwise you may find yourself bargaining the price of the trip at the end of it.
Being with a local guide, as we were, there is no problem: he just asked us for some coins, delivered them to the driver, and, with a couple of strangers we were taken to our hotel.
However, sharing places and fares with strangers, speaking only Arab, in a desolated area of the city, is not very comfortable.
