Athens Taxi Cost Estimation

Tired of being overcharged for taxi trips in Athens? At the weekend I made this simple tool to help estimate the cost of traveling through Athens by taxi: www.zee.gr/taxi/ The costs have been calculated according to the most up to date laws (2010) and include a full itemisation of charges you can expect from your taxi trip. The charges also include the 11% VAT introduced for Athens taxi services in July.

To use the tool, simply right-click on the map to specify your starting and destination address or use the input fields in the left hand side menu. The screenshot below shows a trip from the port to the airport including additional port, toll-road (Attikh Odos) and airport fees.

The tool was made using Google's Beta Maps API v3, Google geocoding and directions services and some very ugly hacked up css/jquery/javascript. Improvements coming soon :)

  2. hi Sir

    I'm sure you are giving wrong information.
    you should at least inform the people that the calculator is only for calculation inside of city limits.

    if i choose a destination out of the city limits without select night tariff it should be calculated like this:
    km in town with day tariff.
    km outside town with night tariff.
    i am a taxi driver 12 years and my honesty is my bible.
    If one of my customers see your price for a destination like Athens to Loytraki or Patra
    i will be in a hole of trouble,, because he will think that i took more money than the legal...
    and i'll loose a customer for your lie..


    please don't give wrong informations...

    thanks a lot.
    have a nice day.

  6. Phil, would you be interested in implementing the same calculator (same features, just different rate structure) for another city? I run a small taxi fleet and it would be interesting if we could get that onto our site. Let me know if you could do this for a fee (of course). Drop me an email at yevk@taxi4u.com
