A fair comparison
Going somewhere that works well with the railway timetable? Trieste Airport's train connection can be a very practical option.
Travelling to the Slovenian coast? Distances are relatively short and several transport choices may make sense.
Going further to Ljubljana, Bled, Bohinj or a spa resort with several passengers and luggage? A direct transfer may become much simpler.
There is no single best option for every traveller.

Why do we ask for a deposit for some pickups at Trieste Airport?
Trieste Airport is not a local pickup for Taxi Legende.
When we accept your reservation, a driver reserves time for the journey and needs to travel towards Italy before your scheduled pickup.
And yes — we have had this happen before:
“Oh, sorry, we don't need the transfer anymore.”
The problem is that sometimes the driver was already on the way.
For that reason, some Trieste Airport pickups require a partial advance payment or deposit to confirm the reservation.
It is not because we do not trust our passengers. It simply confirms that the vehicle and driver's time are genuinely reserved for your journey.
If advance payment does not work for you, that is completely fine.
We only prefer to make this clear early, before we spend a long time discussing flight details, destination, passengers, luggage and price, only to discover at the final step that the booking cannot be confirmed. 😎
For some longer transfers, the deposit may be around 50% of the agreed price. The exact amount is confirmed together with the offer.
Route agreed.
