Deep68 Posted December 22, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 22, 2016 We are planning on renting a car when we are in Grand Cayman and was looking for ideas on an itinerary for the day. Our ship is only in port from 7am to 3pm. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted December 23, 2016 #2 Share Posted December 23, 2016 No need to rent a car..the public bus system is AWESOME! $2.50 pp for almost anywhere! Quick, easy, and reliable! Do a bit of research on GC! You can save a bundle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABQrobin Posted December 23, 2016 #3 Share Posted December 23, 2016 AND Grand Cayman is British style.... steering wheel on right, drive on the left. If you aren't familiar with it, it will be crazy scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msboilerman84 Posted December 26, 2016 #4 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Last time in GC we rented a car and had to get a GC driving permit. Make sure you confirm with the car rental that u don't need a permit Sent from my SM-G935V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way around it. The fee is collected with your payment to the rental car company. Just think of it as another government tax. Cost of the visitor's permit is CI$16 (US$20) per driver. If you are just visiting for the day then it is best to designate one person to do all the driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you aren't familiar with it, it will be crazy scary. I was actually born in England and learnt to drive there. I live in the US now so am luckily comfortable driving on both sides of the road!
