Taxi Rates & Transportation in St. Thomas

Transportation in St. Thomas is by taxi or car rental, read all about it here

St. Thomas, with its stunning beaches and vibrant culture, is a popular destination for tourists seeking a tropical getaway. However, navigating the island’s transportation options can be a unique experience for travelers. Unlike many other places, St. Thomas operates on a per person taxi rate system, which can be surprising for those accustomed to flat fares. Additionally, Uber, a popular ride-sharing service in many destinations, is not on the island.

We share the taxi rates so that you can plan ahead for your transportation on St. Thomas! Typically, the best value is to rent a car. For a free car rental quote contact us!
