How to Hail A Taxi Around the World-Trip Advise
Prague is an enchanting city full of architectural wonders best seen on foot. When you’re feet get tired, though, you may be tempted to grab a cab. Be warned: according to T+L’s guide, “Prague taxis are usually inexpensive—but they're notorious for cheating tourists. Instead of hailing one on the street, call a radio taxi service such as AAA Taxi, 420-2/3311-3311 or HaloTaxi, 420-2/4411-4411 and hire a driver for the day.”

There’s a mandatory flat rate of $3 (ladies-only cab services are also available).” Alternatively, check into the luxurious Burj Al Arab Jumeirah where a fleet of Rolls Royce will be available for use. For a cheap thrill (a rarity in Dubai) hop on a motorized water taxi (abra in Arabic) to cross Dubai Creek.
