Marrakech, Morocco
According to the T+L guide, for a short trip, flag down a so-called petit taxi on the street instead of at a hotel, as you’ll most likely save a little money. For a longer sightseeing trip, book a grand taxi through your hotel.

Paris, France
From personal experience, when you want to grab a cab to take you from the Marais to the Tuileries, head to one of the taxi stands on the streets and wait in line, or simply hail a cab on the street as you would in another major city. To ensure you’re in a legitimate cab, look for a Taxi Parisien sign on the roof, a working meter, and a license plate indicating it’s a taxi.
