What is the "Taxi Overcharging from the Port" scam in Ios?

Question

Accepted Answer

The single-road taxis on Ios quote flat rates to Chora and Mylopotas Beach that vary significantly based on the apparent wealth and urgency of the visitor. The runs are short and a reasonable current fare should be confirmed with your accommodation before arriving. Ask your accommodation for the current going rate to your destination before taking any taxi on the island. Agree the fare explicitly before boarding. The port-to-Chora bus is a frequent and cheap alternative during operating hours.
