Geelong Fare Estimator
The following fares and charges apply to taxis hired in Ballarat, Bendigo and Geelong. For taxis carrying up to 4 passengers (standard taxi) or any multiple hiring:
For taxis carrying 5-11 passengers, or non-wheelchair hiring where the hirer specifically requests a larger than standard taxi regardless of the number of passengers carried:
This Fare Estimator calculates km rate @ $1.96 , based on the Geelong km rate of $1.63 and includes stopping/waiting time at 20% of km rate and including the phone booking fee. The estimates given are affected by traffic conditions. Fewer stops will result in a lower fare. |
At the end of the trip
the taximeter displays the fare, inclusive of fees such as phone booking fee or late night surcharge. Tolls and airport fees are additional to the fare on the meter.
If the final taximeter reading plus any tolls or airport fees (the total taxi cost) is less than the prepaid deposit, then the driver must refund the difference to the passenger.
If the total taxi cost is more than the prepaid deposit, then the passenger must pay the balance to the driver.
Note: All fares are to be paid based on the metered amount and any authorised additional charges, not the estimated amount.
Taxi drivers have the right to ask any customer for proof of payment or a deposit up to the estimated fare amount
