I spend a lot of time in taxis here in Dakar. It feels like a luxury with so much public transport available but one I have concluded is an investment in quality of life.Every ride starts with a negotiation. I'm getting good at staying firm and getting a fair price. I learned early that taxi drivers will always say they know where they're going even when they don't (and then try to charge extra for a longer trip!), so I make sure I know and carry a map too.
