Taxi in Locarno: how to book a ride around the Locarno area

What to share when booking a taxi in Locarno, Muralto, Ascona or to the station: pick-up point, time, passengers and luggage.
Taxi Dome Mercedes E-Class in Piazza Grande, Locarno.

Taxi Dome works by reservation: each ride is arranged in advance, with an agreed time and meeting point. Whether you need to reach the station, your hotel, a restaurant or an appointment in the Locarno area, a few precise details make your request easier to assess. The service is described on the page taxi around Locarno, by reservation.

Share the full address or the name of the property: hotel, home, station or another place. In the old town and pedestrian areas not every spot can be reached by car. In those cases we agree a convenient meeting point together.

Give the date, departure time and destination. If you need to arrive by a set time, for example for a train or an appointment, mention it in your request: it helps us set the pick-up time.

Tell us how many people are travelling and how much luggage you have. If you need child seats or want to carry bulky items, let us know in advance. From 15 November 2026, groups of five to seven people can travel together in the Mercedes V-Class Extra Long.

If you arrive by train at Locarno station in Muralto, add the train number, date and arrival time. We agree the meeting point with you. You will find the details on the page taxi for Locarno station and Muralto.
