Description

Taxiloc is a real time taxi ordering service.
After verifying your order, TAXILOC sends it to our member taxis closest to you and sends you a free response in less than three (3) minutes confirming:
- the colour, 
- the make, 
- the model, 
- the registration plate, 
- and the travel time of the first taxi to accept your order.

If all of the nearby taxis signed up to our service are unavailable, TAXILOC will offer to connect you to a local taxi booth (cost of a local landline call in Paris and the greater Paris area, excluding operator charges). A taxi driver at the booth will answer your call. Please provide him with the exact pick-up address.
