## Taxis and Rideshare in Boise Boise offers several convenient options for on-demand transportation around the city. Traditional taxi services operate throughout Boise and can be hailed on the street in busy areas, booked by phone, or found at designated taxi stands at locations like the Boise Airport. Major rideshare platforms like Uber and Lyft are both active in Boise, providing app-based service across the metro area. To use rideshare services, download the app, create an account, enter your destination, and request a ride – you'll see your driver's location in real-time and receive an estimated arrival time. Payment is handled automatically through the app, eliminating the need for cash. For choosing between options, rideshare apps offer the advantage of upfront pricing visibility and cashless convenience, making them popular for most trips around Boise. Traditional taxis remain reliable for immediate pickup in downtown areas or when you prefer to pay with cash, and they're readily available at the airport. Both options provide similar comfort levels with standard vehicles, though rideshare platforms allow you to see driver ratings before your trip. For current rates and availability, check the rideshare apps directly or use the booking widgets below for real-time pricing. During peak hours or special events, availability may vary across services, so having both rideshare apps installed gives you the most flexibility for getting around Boise.
