The taxis I encountered in downtown Guangzhou yesterday were actually pretty good. One driver told me that Guangzhou taxis get a bad rap, but he advised sticking to 'Guangjun,' 'Guangjiao,' 'Baiyun,' or any yellow taxi – they generally don't overcharge. He warned that taxis of other colors are often from smaller companies and might try to negotiate a price or not use the meter; he said to avoid those.

My strategy: get in the car, pay the fare, and then file a complaint after you get out.

Good to know!

They wanted nearly 150 from me, but a ride-hailing service was only 38 for the same trip.

Right at the zoo entrance, I got the feeling they weren't even scared to try this in broad daylight.

You could just rent a car locally.

Car rentals are also ridiculously expensive during Chinese New Year.

You can definitely report them if they don't use the meter.

Locals here rarely take taxis unless it's absolutely necessary or a special situation.

Those are usually unlicensed 'black cabs' waiting by the roadside.
