Mobile applications that help consumers easily locate nearby taxis and choose the best available taxi, based on the feedback that previous passengers have given, are thriving in Greece during the crisis.

Taxibeat is the pioneer mobile application that completely altered the way we hail a taxi! For the first time, instead of flagging down a stranger, one could get a trusted taxi driver, rated by other Taxibeat users. And above all, at no extra cost.

Taxiplon is another Greek taxi services application. Its software constitutes a world innovation and was selected candidate for better application for smart phones at World Mobile Congress in 2012. Athens Welcome Pickups is more than a taxi application; it is a travel service for tourists visiting Greece. Local drivers –who are laymen - pick up visitors at the Athens International Airport and for a flat rate, take them to their hotel, as well as a tour in Athens.

Apart for from mobile applications for taxi services there are companies that, upon demand, provide high quality services, English speaking drivers, spotless and comfortable cars and round the clock services. Among them Athens Taxi Driver provides guided tours and excursions to the most popular destinations; Exclusive Taxi Services provides luxurious cars, and aspires to serve with punctuality, discretion and multilingual support. Auto Rapid Deluxe (A.R.D) also offers technological services on the go: Internet, Wi-Fi system, Skype in preselected vehicles. V.I.P. Taxi provides services all around Greece.
