TAXI OR VTC: WE OFFER BOTH

VTC stands for "voiture de transport avec chauffeur", the French term for a private hire vehicle with a professional driver. Think of it as a pre-booked car service or private chauffeur. A Paris taxi is a licensed cab that can also be booked in advance or used for immediate trips.

Baby-Cabs operates both licensed taxis and VTC vehicles. Whichever one you ride in, you get the same family service: a driver who's used to travelling with children, an approved child seat for every little one, room for the stroller or pushchair, and a price agreed before you travel.

You don't need to choose. Just tell us your trip, the number of passengers and your luggage, and we'll send the vehicle that best suits your family.

What's the difference between a VTC and a taxi in Paris?
A taxi is a licensed cab that can be hailed in the street, found at a taxi rank or booked in advance. A VTC (private hire vehicle) must always be booked in advance. Baby-Cabs offers both, and the family service is the same: child seats fitted before pickup, space for all your gear and a fixed price agreed at booking.

Travelling to Paris as a family? Baby-Cabs is a family VTC service: a private driver, a car or van sized for your group, and child seats already fitted for your little ones. One booking, one fixed price, and the whole family travels together.

WHAT IS A VTC IN PARIS?

VTC stands for "voiture de transport avec chauffeur", the French term for a private hire vehicle with a professional driver. Think of it as a pre-booked car service or private chauffeur, rather than a cab you hail in the street. You book in advance, the price is agreed before you travel, and your driver meets you exactly where and when you need.

For families, that makes all the difference. You choose the right vehicle for the number of passengers and the amount of luggage, and you can ask for child seats, extra space for a stroller or pushchair, and a driver who's used to travelling with children.

A VEHICLE FOR EVERY FAMILY

- Sedan (saloon car): up to 4 passengers. Ideal for parents with one or two children and standard luggage.
- Van 7: up to 7 passengers. Our most popular choice for families with several children, a stroller and suitcases.
- Van 8: up to 8 passengers. Perfect when the grandparents, a nanny or another family join the trip.
- Minibus: up to 14 passengers. For family reunions, weddings, school-age groups and multi-family holidays.
