Megnolia Posted October 17, 2008 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2008 We want to visit the Concorde experience, but depending on time, have several other sites we would love to explore. If we take a taxi at the pier, is it possible to have it take us from place to place, or would we be likely to hail a cab at any of the tourist attractions? If you've done such a thing, do you have an idea what a reasonable cost for someone to take you around for several hours? Is it a crazy idea? Thanks, Meg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Meg Search for OFFICIAL TAXI RATE BARBADOS Point to point travel by taxi is regulated. Several sites report an hourly rate of $20-$25 USD per hour. A couple cruise/travel sites listed this web site - http://www.scenicbarbados.com/ The official currency is the Barbados Dollar (bd) with an exchange rate of 2 bd = 1 USD. Enjoy!

Megnolia Posted October 18, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Thanks a lot! Do you know if it would be best to get some Barbados dollars, or will they accept US? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwalaska Posted October 19, 2008 #4 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Thanks a lot! Do you know if it would be best to get some Barbados dollars, or will they accept US? From what I understand they will accept US dollars but give change in Barbados dollars. Just be sure to verify when someone is giving you a price which currency the quote is in.

Couple of years ago had a taxi from 10.00 to 16.00. Can`t remember cost but not a fortune. Did a deal at cruise dock. Told driver which beaches and hotels we wanted to see. Sandy Lane good but I would stay at Cobblers Cove. Driver took us to a great place for lunch on other side of island from hotels so good value and very tasty. A most enjoyable day. Back to ship 15 minutes early. Although price agreed was, all in, gave driver good tip for good service. Nice man. :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
