subject: Hire A Taxi To Avoid Car Rentals [print this page] I hired a taxi from Halifax AirportI hired a taxi from Halifax Airport. The cost for hiring the cab for for next one week came out to be less then insurance and fuel cost that I would genrally pay for such a trip, plus the driver was friendly,courteous and knowledgeable. I visited many place of Halifax, NS. All I had to do was to call the taxi driver 10 minutes ahead of time. I would never rent a car whenever I have such a great alternative.
