Mecca and Concord Taxi

A month long in Mecca, the most feasible transportation is taxi. But in order to get a comfortable taxi ride, we need to choose properly. And they do not use the meter. Therefore, make sure that you know the destination address to be addressed, and you need to bid price. Never alone you take a taxi in Mecca. Invite a friend or relative when you take a cab in mecca. because the average taxi drivers do not understand and can speak English.
If you can not speak Arabic, note the address that will be addressed and tujukkan the taxi driver.

For rush hours, they used to raise the price of a taxi up to two times. You also need to be very clever to bid price. When it comes down make sure the woman down first.

In the cab ride, they do not pay attention to traffic signs. And will honk a few times. And it's unusual there. One thing to also note is that they sometimes will take an additional passenger. Although we've agreed on taxi fare. This is certainly different from the cab in America. Or particularly like in Concord, California.

It could be said that the taxi driver was fine. However, not least that they are rough and when speaking casually. Custom of the Arabs when speaking in a loud voice, perhaps because of their environment like that. Of course it is very different to the taxi driver or yellowcab we encountered in America. As in the city of Concord, Martinez, Pleasant Hill, Pittsburg California.
