How much is a taxi in Tbilisi, and how do you call one?
Apps, city fares and airport rides.
Short answer
The easiest way to get a taxi in Tbilisi is through the Bolt, Yandex Go or Maxim apps: you see the price in advance, and a ride around the centre usually costs 5-15 GEL. From the airport to the centre it is roughly 25-40 GEL by app, depending on the time and demand. On the street, agree the fare before you get in.
Why
- Taxi apps work in Tbilisi, Batumi and Kutaisi, with payment by card or cash.
- App prices rise at peak times and in bad weather.
- Street taxis have no meter, so agree the price in advance.

At the airport drivers approach arriving passengers, usually at higher prices than the apps. To save money, bus 337 runs to the centre for 1 GEL.
Tip
Check the car's plate against the app and don't get into cars offering rides without a booking.
