Plenty and relatively cheap, taxis are the best and most comfortable way of getting around the city, although the traffic will slow things down a bit. All taxis are metered. Flagdown rate for each type of taxi is the same (RMB10) but the charge per kilometer depends on the size of the taxi.

Guangzhou's Metro system is very efficient and fairly easy to navigate, as signs and maps are displayed both in English and Chinese.

Fares start from RMB2 to RMB5.
