Private Transfer, Taxi, Metro or Bus
The best option depends on your budget, group size, luggage and accommodation location.
An official metered taxi from the airport rank gives a direct road journey without advance booking, with a metered fare that varies. The airport also has a station on the Metro Red Line, which can suit travellers with light luggage whose accommodation is close to a station, though some central destinations need a change of line or a walk. Public buses serve parts of the city, with routes and luggage conditions to check before travelling.
A pre-booked private transfer suits you if you want your pickup, vehicle and destination arranged before you travel, especially with children, several suitcases or a larger group.
