1. The Brest Taxi Rate Explained Simply

Officially Set

The Brest taxi rate was officially set on February 1, 2024. Taxi tariffs in France are officially set by cities or districts. The taxi tariff Brest was last set in February 2024 and published in the official tariff ordinance. It is binding for all taxis and taxi companies within the compulsory driving area and may not be exceeded or undercut. This is ensured by officially calibrated taximeters installed in the taxis.

How the fare is made up under the Brest taxi rate:

The taxi tariff in Brest determines how much you pay for your ride based on the time of day and the distance you travel. There are separate charges for daytime and nighttime hires. Daytime rates apply from Monday to Saturday, between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm. Nighttime rates apply from Monday to Saturday between 7:00 pm and 7:00 am, and all day on Sunday.

For both daytime and nighttime rides, the base fare is €8.00. This base fare includes the first part of your journey: 2.52 km during the day and 1.69 km at night. After this distance, you pay for each additional kilometer. During the day, the price is €2.06 per kilometer for all further distances. At night or on Sundays, the price per kilometer is €3.08 for all further distances.

If your taxi is waiting for you or is delayed due to traffic, there is a charge for waiting time. The waiting time costs €29.75 per hour, regardless of whether it is during the day or at night. This ensures transparency if your journey involves stops or heavy traffic.

Passengers using the taxi tariff in Brest can expect their total fare to be made up of the base fare, additional charges for any distance traveled beyond the initial distance included in the base fare, and, if applicable, any waiting time. This structure helps you understand exactly how your fare is calculated, whether you travel during the day, at night, or on Sundays.
