Red light district Darmstadt
[QUOTE=Turgid;2121069]I took a taxi from Sharks to Darmstadt HBF, on arrival he told me 15 euros. I told him I had always been paying 10 euros, ....[/QUOTE]Only under very special conditions the fare will be 10 Euros from Sharks to Darmstadt HBF in the night. Usually the fare is between 10,60 and 11,40. My impression is, that certain taxi drivers prefer to drive slowly and when leaving Sharks, turn to the left. This route is full of red traffic lights.
If you are lucky and enter a taxi with a taxi driver who turns to the right when leaving Sharks, and if he drives fast, and if he stops directly in front of the station and not where all the taxis wait, it will be 10 Euros.
The way from mainstation to Sharks during the day can be more expensive due to traffic and again lots of red traffic lights.
But what are we talking about? One or two Euro, maximum 3 Euro difference. And then we pay 50 to 65 Euro only to get into Sharks.
BTW, the taxi drivers every time receive 10 Euros from the Sharks reception after they have delivered you there.
