Taxi capacity

How many passengers can ride in a taxi? There are 5 of us that want to taxi from Dockyard to Horseshoe Bay.

I believe four would be the maximum you cold even get in the taxi.

 

Maybe you could get a taxi van but would be trickier on your return.

There are taxis that can take six in the back.

The larger taxis are now permitted to take 7 passengers...six in the back and the seventh in the front passenger seat. Previously the limit was 6. Smaller taxis are limited to 4 passengers.

 

Note that metered fares for 5-7 passengers in a taxi are about 25% higher that the 1-4 passenger fares.

 

On Sundays, overnight hours and holidays 5-7 passengers in a taxi will be subject to a 50% fare surcharge over the otherwise applicable fare, as opposed to a 25% surcharge for 1-4 passengers.

 

The fare for 5 passengers from Dockyard to Horseshoe Bay will be about $45 plus tip, Monday - Saturday.
