Night taxi in Paris: fares, availability and tips

Taking a taxi at night in Paris

Paris never sleeps, and neither do its taxis. Whether you're coming home from a night out, a show, or a dinner, here's what you need to know about taking a night taxi in Paris.

Night fares

Parisian taxis apply different rates depending on the time and zone:

  • Rate A (day, Paris): €1.14/km
  • Rate B (night, Paris / day, suburbs): €1.46/km
  • Rate C (night, suburbs): €1.61/km

The night rate applies from 7pm to 7am Monday to Saturday, and all day on Sundays and holidays.

With TaxiNeo: you know the exact price before booking, night or day. No need to calculate.

24/7 availability

Unlike rideshare services that reduce their fleet at night (and increase prices), Parisian taxis operate 24 hours a day. Taxi stands remain active, and with TaxiNeo, you can book at any hour.

Night safety

Taking a taxi at night is one of the safest options:

  • Identified driver: visible license, registered vehicle number
  • Tracked ride: real-time GPS
  • No risk of unlicensed drivers
  • Secure payment: no need to handle cash

Tips for a successful night taxi
