Taxi in Jacksonville

I was wondering if anyone knows aproximately how long it will take and how much a taxi would be from the Greyhound bus station in Jacksonville to the pier?

 

For those who know me, know I don't fly but I love to cruise.

Nancy, I don't know anyone who has taken a taxi from the bus station downtown to

the ship, but it should take about a half hour, depending on the time of day. The cruise

terminal is east of downtown and across the river, but there is an expressway system

that speeds things up. The best and most prevalent cab company in Jax is Gator City

Taxi.......their phone is 904-355-8294. They are very reliable.

I just called them, and was told the fare would be approximately $20 to $25 USD, and the

ride would be 30 to 45 minutes. It really should be less than 45 minutes.

I hope you enjoy sailing out of Jacksonville, it's pretty scenic just getting out to the

ocean!!!

Don't judge our city by what you see at the bus station.

Have a great cruise.

 

Depending on the time of day, downtown could be bustling, or deserted. We do have a

lot to see downtown, though.....try riding the Skyway on Friday, go to the Farmers

Market in Hemming Plaza, and lunch at Cafe Nola!!!!!

 

Sailing away, the ship passes lovely homes on the south side of the river, and under

a most beautiful bridge. Then out past Mayport, a fishing village, past the Naval

Air Station, and out through the jetties. A little different from most ports.
