Similar to Margaritaville prices as I recall. That means, relatively high for mixed drinks and buckets. Go, enjoy and have a free rum shot and one Turks Head beer. If Jack's is busy, serve can be on the slow and surly side.

Don't need slow or surly. Hmmmm. Might just stroll down to the other beer shack? We have never been to T & C. Looking forward to it. Is it better to take the trolley train or just hire a taxi driver to see some of the sights?

 

What do the taxi drivers charge? We have been totally hosed by taxi drivers in the past most notably on Antigua.

There is a trolly that does a tour of the island for $20 and you could catch it at a parking lot right off the beach near a beach bar close to the pier. It is $5 to take taxi to town and you can walk around and get cold beer there.

Is this the one that is one of the ship's excursions?

Were there few weeks ago and based on previous posts, we went to find a tour ourselves and were told to talk to the ship's excursion rep standing in the courtyard. Then went to the taxi stand to go into town or tour and prices are fixed and posted. We were told that the pricing for anything going out of or into the cruise port are set by the cruise line in association with the tourist bureau. You could walk out of the cruise port and flag a taxi....you might be able to negotiate.

Seriously? I think that is a bit gouging. Obviously the prices are probably high.

YES! Seriously, as per local tourist bureau staff. Also, the $5 taxi ride drop off was at a bunch of beach front souvenir shops operated by Haitian refugees.
