On-Demand Private Rides Across Lima
A private car when you need one now, without an app auctioning your ride to the nearest stranger. Tell us where you are, a vetted PrymeCab driver is with you in about twenty minutes, and the price is the price you were told.
How it works
Send the pickup point and where you are going. We confirm a vehicle and a fare on WhatsApp, and you can follow the car as it approaches. There is nothing to install and no account to create.
Because the fare is agreed before the driver sets off, it does not rise because it is raining, because it is Friday at seven, or because you are standing outside a hotel.
Why people stop hailing in the street
Street taxis in Lima are negotiated through the window, and the price depends on how you look and how well you argue in Spanish. Ride-hailing apps solve the haggling and introduce a different problem: a driver you know nothing about, in a car nobody vetted.
PrymeCab drivers work for PrymeCab. The class of vehicle you saw in the catalogue is the class of vehicle that arrives, and the person driving it answers to a company that has to account for the trip.
When on-demand is the wrong choice
If your ride has a deadline — a flight, a meeting, a restaurant table across town at rush hour — a scheduled transfer is the better call, because the vehicle is committed to you in advance instead of assigned when you ask.

Frequently asked questions

- No. PrymeCab quotes a fare before the trip, and it does not move with demand, weather or time of day.
- Do I need to download an app?
- No. The reservation is made on this website and the conversation continues on WhatsApp.
- What currency are fares quoted in?
- PrymeCab quotes every fare in US dollars. How you pay is agreed with you on WhatsApp when the ride is confirmed.
- Is it available anywhere in Lima?
- PrymeCab operates across the city. Pickup times are shortest in Miraflores, San Isidro, Barranco, Surco and San Borja, where most of our work is.
