Just_Arrived_HereHey all
I just moved to the city a few months ago and I am still figuring out the transport situation here.
I got stuck at Bizet earlier today because the trains were delayed and everything was a mess.
I ended up booking a Taxis Verts and it was way cheaper than the Uber price I saw at the time.
Just wanted to share that since it saved me some cash during the rush
Accepted answer
ExpatsParadiseIt really depends on what you need though. Uber and Bolt are super easy for quick trips, but Heetch is usually my go-to for the best price. Taxis Verts is the main one for a proper regulated taxi, and FREE NOW is good because it gives you both taxis and private hire. I find it much cheaper to grab a ride if there are three or more of us traveling together.
Cheers
sunny_days_be3Usually, checking prices on Uber, Taxis Verts, and Heetch before committing to anything is what I do. It is worth the extra minute to see which one is the cheapest at that moment.
Good luck
canadian_in_ghentTrains are sooo much faster sometimes because of the unpredictable traffic in the city center. Taxis can take forever when the ring road is blocked
belgian_witDont use uber when demand is high becuase the prices go way up so much higher than the regular taxi apps
the_relocatorUber is often more expensive and less reliable than local alternatives like Heetch or Taxis Verts in my experience.
Thanks
brussels_engineerSome weird experiences with Taxis Verts lately!! Some of the drivers seem to drive a bit less professional or even unsafe compared to the other services. It is a bit concerning!!
antwerp_sales_proWatch out for those 'sketchy' drivers who start circling the block just to trigger those cancellation fees. A total scam.
