A taxi is the easiest way to get from the station to the Old Town and Kapana, especially with luggage. Order on 032 6155 or through the app, which works in English and shows the fare before you order. Every car takes cards, and the day tariff is a €1.60 initial fee plus €0.80 per kilometre.
Arriving by train or bus
After a long journey with suitcases, the last thing you want is to work out unfamiliar city transport. At the station you can order a taxi by phone or in the app and follow the car on the map. The driver takes you to your hotel or apartment.
The city tariff by day (06:00–22:00) is a €1.60 initial fee plus €0.80 per kilometre; at night (22:00–06:00) it is €1.80 and €0.90 per kilometre. The call-out fee is €0.50. The meter shows the final price, and there is no surge pricing. The full table is in How much is a taxi in Plovdiv.
To the Old Town
The Old Town has cobbled, sloping streets that are awkward with suitcases. It is best to give the driver the exact address of your hotel or guesthouse, and he will drop you as close as the streets allow. If you are unsure how an address is spelled, show it on your phone or enter it in the app, where you can type it in English.
A tip: if you have a lot of luggage, mention it when you order so we send a suitable car. Our cars have space for luggage and sports gear.
To Kapana and the centre
Kapana is Plovdiv’s creative quarter, with cafes, galleries and bars, and the ride there from the central area is short. In the evening, when the streets are busy, a taxi is a comfortable way back to your hotel after dinner. The night tariff applies after 22:00, and it is just as clear: a €1.80 initial fee and €0.90 per kilometre.
If you plan a late evening out, save the number 032 6155: the dispatcher answers 24/7, every day of the year.
Language, children and luggage
English-speaking drivers are available. The app also works in English: you enter the address, see the estimated fare, order and follow the car. If you travel with a small child, ask for a child seat when you order.
