Taking a Taxi in Barcelona is, unlike in many other major European cities, still affordable. You can easily stop one in the street or at Barcelona airport in order to go to your apartment in Barcelona.
There are over 11.000 registered taxis in Barcelona, and all are obliged to have a working meter, and an official sticker showing the regulations and pricing system. In certain cases supplements are being charged, for example when putting luggage in the trunk, and when going to or from the port or airport.
There are many pre-assigned taxi-stands and free taxis are easily recognizable by the lit green light on top of the taxi. When there is little general traffic (at night after 21:00) you will pay something in between € 4 to € 10 to for each trip, of course depending on your destination. Many taxi drivers work hard and make long hours, so a tip of between 5-10% of the cost is usually highly appreciated.
