Yerevan Diaries: Pink taxi

This taxi service is for women only (no single man can be served; only if accompanied by woman).

*I devote this post to Blansh

  2. No, the drivers are not women. I asked about that and it was not the case.

  3. Guys, sorry for confusion. I now clarified the info. This taxi service is for women only (no single man can be served; only if accompanied by woman). But taxi drivers are men. I amended my post accordingly.

  4. Mika jan, is that still true? I heard that initially the Pink Taxi was intended for women, but (I'm guessing due to the need for more fares?) it now accepts fares from men too (single, not necessarily accompanied by a woman). We should confirm if it's now just a regular taxi or still catering mainly to women...

  5. Adrineh jan, I clarified this with Shushan, who regularly uses their service and provided me with this amended info few days ago. But if you could get more info, please do let me know.

  6. This is really very nice and interesting. Women would love to hire such a beautiful taxi. I want all women to read this blog and know about this beautiful facility.

  7. As a potential visitor to Yerevan, this seems like a nice service, but it does make me ask why a women's only taxi service is necessary. Are Yerevan men obnoxiously sexist, harassing, or what?
