Daejeon is quite spaced out, so taxis fares can run up quickly. For a cross-town trip, expect to spend up to 10,000 won, far higher if travelling to the lesser developed outer regions west of the bisecting mountain range, north of Yuseong, or around Shintanjin. The width of town can be covered usually in 4,000-5,000 won. Daejeon experiences near city-wide gridlock from 5PM to almost midnight on Fridays so use the subway to cross the length of the city and catch a taxi from there to cover the width. Unregistered taxis are a common sight around the Dongbu bus terminal, so keep a keen lookout for the "It's Daejeon" logo on the side of the vehicle or a meter in the front if you don't wish to be mislead or deceived by un-licensed operators in un-metered vehicles.
