In certain cases supplements are being charged, for example when putting luggage in the trunk, and when going to or from the port or airport.There are many pre-assigned taxi-stands in Barcelona and free taxis are easily recognizable by the lit green light on top of the taxi. Many cab drivers work hard and make long hours, so a tip of between 5-10% of the cost is usually highly appreciated.
