"GuestCard with taxi voucher" promotion
Vouchers for free taxi rides
Your guest card includes vouchers for free taxi rides within the Wilder Kaiser region, ensuring that you, as a guest, can stay mobile even when ski and hiking buses are unavailable or running infrequently. The "GuestCard with taxi voucher" promotion is new. It will be offered for the first time as a pilot project from 8 March to 9 May 2025.
What is the concept?
What is the concept?
- The GuestCard includes four vouchers for free taxi rides when only a few ski or hiking buses are operating in the region.
- Each taxi voucher is valid for one person.
- The taxi vouchers are only valid for journeys within the Wilder Kaiser region, covering the municipalities of Ellmau, Going, Scheffau, and Söll.
- For trips within your own holiday resort (e.g. from your accommodation to the cable car) or to a neighbouring village (e.g. from Scheffau to Söll), one taxi voucher per person is required (1 zone).
- For trips to more distant locations within the Wilder Kaiser region (e.g. from Ellmau to Söll), two vouchers per person are required (2 zones).
Required number of taxi vouchers per person and journey.
| Taxi vouchers | Ellmau | Going | Scheffau | Söll |
| Ellmau | 1 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
| Going | 1 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
| Scheffau | 1 | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Söll | 2 | 2 | 1 | 1 |
Please note: The minimum occupancy per trip is 2 persons (whether fellow travelers or third parties). Individuals travelling alone in a taxi will need to use double the number of vouchers per journey (1 zone = 2 vouchers, 2 zones = 4 vouchers).
GuestCard promotion = ticket
Also included in the GuestCard is the free, year-round use of all public bus services up to the final stop.

Taxi vouchers are non-transferable and can only be used by the person to whom the GuestCard is issued. A cash payment of the voucher value is not possible.
Can a taxi company refuse a ride?
Taxi companies are free to accept or refuse a ride (if no vehicle is available or the route is too far). There is no guarantee of carriage.

It is recommended to book a taxi in advance, especially during peak times. However, spontaneous trips are also possible as long as taxis are available.
Can I also use other means of transport such as buses?
No, the taxi vouchers are only valid for journeys with the participating taxi companies and are not transferable to other taxi companies or means of transport.
Are there alternatives to a taxi if I want to travel longer distances or if I have run out of vouchers?
