Overview

Taxi

The guide was updated: 2024-05-28

It is easiest to hail a taxi on the street, especially in the city centre or at the airport and train stations. However, some companies, such as Adelaide Independent Taxis and Suburban Taxis, among others, may be well reached via phone or app. Another option for lower fares is the rideshare companies Uber, Ola, and Didi.

Adelaide International Airport is just 6km from the city centre. The easiest public transport option is the J1 and J2 buses, which run every 15-30 minutes until 11:30pm, taking around 25-30 minutes to reach Adelaide's city centre. The bus stop is located outside the terminal to the left, past the taxi rank. Ride-sharing services like Uber, Ola, and Didi have designated pick-up facilities at the airport.

While February is the hottest month of the year, the following ones cool down the weather to a level of comfort that ends with winter coming around from June until August.
