Taxi Fare Estimator
As a rule, estimate $1.30 per minute of taxi ride
without traffic, 0.60 per minute
with heavy traffic. Add 20% for night time rides (after 9pm):
- Ipanema Barra (Nuth) $22
- Ipanema Barra (Pepe) $24
- Ipanema Joatinga $20
- Ipanema Santos Dumont $18

- Ipanama Maracana $20
- Ipanema Copacabana $8
- Ipanema Botafogo $14
- Ipanema Humaita $12
If you get rates double the above mentioned prices, or it seems
extremely unfair,
step out the taxi, call the nearest cop and tell him “o
taximetro esta desregulado”,
meaning the meter has been tampered with.
