Taxi experience in Brussels
According to some recent report by a Dutch travel website, Brussels is reported to be the sixth most expensive city in Europe regarding taxi trips from the Brussels airport to Brussels city centre.
According to the airport taxi Report by Vliegveldinfo.nl, an average taxi ride from Brussels Zaventem airport to Brussels city centre costs around 45 euros. The European average was €40.
A study compared taxi prices in about 40 major European cities. And the result showed that you should expect to pay 3 to 5 euros per kilometre a taxi ride from the airport to the city.
Based on the same report, only 5 cities are more expensive than Brussels.
First Geneva, then Zürich, followed by Copenhagen, Nice and Düsseldorf on the fifth position.
What do you think about the taxi ride in your own city from the airport to the city centre?
Taxi experience in London
London taxi is known to be the best taxi in the world. 6 times in a row London’s taxi has been voted number one best taxi service.
A taxi survey conducted by Hotels.com puts London taxi in the first position followed by New York City taxi.
Tokyo comes on the third position to complete the top number 3 best taxi service in the world.
According to the same survey, the London black cabs offer the best taxi services. The London cabs drivers are known to have very good knowledge of the whereabouts of almost any establishment. This is due to the taxi training they get. In fact, London taxi drivers go through a very serious training before start operating as taxi drivers. Do you have personal experience with taxis in any of those top 3 cities?

I really had very good experience with taxi services in London
Indeed from every website i could read London cabs drivers have very good reputation especially about their knowldge of the city. Only i was surprised that they did not appear among the most expensive. As it is also known that London cabs are not that cheap. But still good point for them ;-)
