The taxi situation in Chisinau is changing from year to year, and it can be difficult for foreign tourists to order a taxi safely.
That’s why we decided to prepare a list of phone numbers and apps you can use to order taxis in Chisinau and its suburbs.
The first thing to keep in mind, if you arrive in Chisinau via Chisinau International Airport, is NOT to take one of the taxis waiting for orders in front of the airport.
Besides the fact that you will be overcharged a few times, there is also the risk of running into a less than adequate driver. There aren’t many stories about these taxi drivers putting anyone’s life in danger, but locally they are notorious for fighting with each other, so you don’t want an unsuitable driver driving you around.
The safest and most tourist-friendly way to order taxis is by using one of the available apps.
You need to be careful though, as some apps may not be available until you change the region in the App Store / Google Play.
If you can’t find one of the apps listed, we recommend changing the region temporarily to Moldova.
In addition to the apps, there are a wide variety of phone numbers to order from, but chances are slim that anyone answering those phones will speak English.
