Taxis and Dolmus: Taxis are numerous in all Turkish cities and are
recognizable by their yellow color. The fare shown on the meter reads
according to distance traveled. The "Dolmus" a special service found only in Turkey, is a
collective taxi which follows specific routes. It may be a car or minibus.
Each passenger pays according to distance traveled. The relatively cheap
fares are fixed by the municipality. The "Dolmus" provides a
service within large cities, to suburbs, airports, and often to neighboring
towns. This is a very practical means of transportation and much cheaper than
a taxi.
