Welcome to Balikpapan! Getting around our city is easy with a variety of taxi options available to suit your needs.

We understand arriving in a new place can be stressful, so we’ve made it simple to find reliable transportation. Here’s how you can get where you need to go:

Booking Your Ride:

• Ride-Hailing Apps: Download and use popular apps like Maxim and Grab directly on your mobile device. These apps allow you to quickly and easily order a ride from wherever you are.
• Local Taxi Companies: Prefer a more traditional approach? You can reach one of our trusted local operators directly. We have several established companies including City Taxi, Mawar, Kalung Mas, and Globalindo Taxi.

Understanding Costs:

Ride-hailing services offer convenient, upfront pricing. Expect to pay approximately Rp 65-70k for a motorbike ride, and Rp 110-220k for a car, depending on your destination. Traditional taxis may have different fare structures.

Helpful Hints for a Smooth Journey:

• Calling a Taxi: We recommend calling our local taxi companies to arrange a pickup, rather than attempting to hail one on the street. Simply call their number and provide your location.
• Airport Arrival: If you're arriving at the airport, look for the Grab booth in the arrival hall. Our friendly staff will happily assist you with locating the designated pickup point.

We are committed to providing you with a seamless transport experience during your stay in Balikpapan. Enjoy your visit!
