| Bolt | Star Taxi | |
|---|---|---|
| Description | Broad Romanian ride coverage with upfront estimates, live driver tracking, in-app payment and scheduled requests. | Dispatches licensed taxis in Bucharest and several Romanian cities, with driver details and the meter tariff shown. |
| Essential? | Yes | No |
| Pro Tip | Compare the final quote with Uber. At Henri Coandă Airport, follow the app to the current Departures-level pickup area and never cancel for an off-app ride. | Use it as a surge-price check, not an automatic winner. Reject requests to cancel, pay a higher off-app fare or ignore the meter. |
