Indicative estimates for journeys from Miramas. Regulated fares: the taximeter reading applies.
How is a taxi fare calculated?
Taxi fares are regulated : every year, a prefectural order sets the maximum fares that apply to all taxis in the Bouches-du-Rhône. The price of your journey is calculated by the vehicle’s meter (approved taximeter).
How a fare is calculated
Pick-up fee + kilometers travelled × kilometer rate + waiting time or slow traffic (traffic jams) + any supplements.
Day or night, one way or round trip
The per-kilometer rate depends on the time of day and the route. For a one way outside Miramas, the taxi returns empty: the meter applies Rate C during the day and Rate D at night, on Sundays and public holidays. When the customer makes the return trip in the taxi, the lower rates A and B apply.
Example: Miramas → Marseille Airport
For about 30 km during the day: €2.40 + 30 km × €2.24 = €69.60. At night: €2.40 + 30 km × €2.90 = €89.40. This explains our estimates of €68 by day and €88 by night. The exact amount depends on the route and traffic: the taximeter reading applies.
