Taxi
Taking a taxi in Yerevan is a very affordable mode of transportation. You can get across the entire city for 600 drams when it is not rush hour. You can flag down a cab practically anywhere and they are often parked at the curb waiting for clients. On average, the fare is 100 drams per kilometer. It is best to avoid taking a taxi that does not have a meter, they will most likely overcharge. So it is more convenient if you download the taxi services online application (gg, Utaxi, Yandex Taxi) before arrival. You can also connect your bank card to the application.
Car Rental
Renting a car is not the most advisable means of transport if you are planning on staying in the city. There are many traffic lights, and traffic jams are common on workdays. Even parking lots and backyards of buildings are congested, so a car can become a real burden. On the other hand, renting a car is a viable option if you have decided to take short trips to other regions of the country.
Bike and e-Scooter Sharing
There are modern online applications (YerevanRide, Mimo Bike, YouDrive Lite, BusyFly, JET) for renting bicycles and electric scooters in Yerevan. But please note that, unfortunately, the city is not yet adapted to the use of these types of movements and there are no dedicated special lines.
