Taxis

The Minneapolis Saint Paul metro region offers an ample supply of taxis for convention attendees. Cab drivers have undergone special training just for the 2008 Republican National Convention and have had the opportunity to expand their services into the entire metro region. Please look for cabs with the authorized 2008 Republican National Convention decals. These drivers have received additional training and drop off/pick up privileges for the convention.
