The present invention relates to a method for guiding an aircraft over an airport taxiway which is carried out by a data-processing device of a guiding system, wherein said method comprises the steps of determining (E1) at least one possible future path of the aircraft according to the topography of the taxiway in the vicinity of the aircraft, receiving (E2) at least one command relating to the path for the aircraft to follow, selecting (E3) a path to follow from said possible future paths that have been determined and, on the basis of said received command, guiding (E4) the aircraft along the selected path to follow. When the aircraft is in a region of the taxiway for free manoeuvring in which said aircraft can move freely, said possible future paths that have been determined are paths that correspond to a set of predefined radii of curvature, said received command is a command that relates to a radius of curvature, and the selected path to follow is the possible future path that corresponds to the requested radius of curvature.
