willcruiseanythyme Posted January 30, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Has anyone ever just walked off their ship and hired a taxi for a flat rate for say, 4 hours and have them take you wherever you wanted to go? We will be in port in March and we toured this way in Grenada and it worked out wonderfully! I think we paid $35 and our driver took us wherever we wanted to go! Is this safe in St. Kitts? Of course we tipped quite well as we thought $35 was a steal! Wondering what a reasonable cost for doing this might be?? Our reasons for liking to do it this way is we have control of what we want to see and how long we want to stay at places. An organized excursion does not allow for this. Any input would be appreciated!! Sent from my SM-G925V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul58 Posted January 30, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2017 St Kitts is about 65 sq miles in area. A drive around the island does not take that long. A taxi will have a flat rate of about $30-$35 per hour for up to 4 persons sharing the taxi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
