Soon I will move to Doha and for a while I will have to use taxis to go to work daily. Can anyone tell if I make a contract with a taxi company to pick me up and take me to work ?
Hi qatari, what do we need to pay attention when getting contract with limo company? Do we have to specify the type of car we use, time of ride, possibility of refund?
Also, with this contract, do we have to fix the time to commute? Or can we call, say, 30 min before we need the tide?
Are there a wide choice of limo companies for choice? Any companies are more reliable in services?
They are okay for occasional use (but even then it can be painful) but I would not rely on them on a daily basis. There seems to be either a serious shortage of taxis in Doha or a really bad system of co-ordinating the dispatch.
You'll often see empty taxis roaming the street but if you had to phone and ask for one they would say non-available.
Another option may be to get a contract with a limo company (basically, nice cars) - a bit pricier but much more reliable.
