Can I get a Lyft or Uber price estimate without logging in?
Yes. Enter a pickup and a drop-off above and you get an estimated price for Lyft, Uber, taxis and self-driving rides. There is no account to create and no app to install.
How much does a Waymo ride cost?
It depends on distance, time and demand, like other ride services. Enter your trip and a Waymo estimate appears beside Lyft and Uber wherever Waymo carries riders on that route.
How accurate are the fare estimates?
Each range is built to cover what about half of riders are quoted for that trip at that hour. Ride apps show different riders different prices at the same moment, so treat the range as a guide and check the app before you book.
Is Uber or Lyft cheaper?
It depends on the city, the trip and the hour. The two are usually within a few dollars of each other, and either can be cheaper at a given moment, which is why it is worth comparing both for your trip.
Do the estimates include airport fees and tolls?
Yes. Airport pickup and drop-off fees, city surcharges and the bridge and tunnel tolls we know of are added to each estimate. Tips are not included, and toll roads that charge by distance are named but left out.
Can I compare self-driving rides such as Waymo?
Yes. Waymo, Tesla Robotaxi, Zoox and other self-driving services appear in your results wherever they carry riders for that trip, along with the app that books each one.
Does FareEstimate book the ride?
No. We estimate and compare prices, then open the ride company's own app or site with your pickup and drop-off already filled in. You see the real price there before you confirm.
