St Kitts And Nevis Getting Around
Getting Around by Water
Getting Around by Road
Bus: There are privately run bus services, which are comfortable and make regular, but unscheduled, runs between villages.
Taxi: Services on both islands have set rates. A schedule of taxi rates is obtainable at the government headquarters. There is a 50% surcharge between 2200-0600. Taxi drivers expect a 10% tip.
Car/moped hire: A selection of cars and mopeds can be hired from several companies. It is best to book cars through the airline well in advance. When hiring scooters safety equipment is not included in the price; those hiring these must bear this in mind as other road users do not usually give scooters due consideration.
Documentation: Before driving any vehicle, including motorcycles, a local Temporary Driver’s Licence must be obtained from the Police Traffic Department. This is readily issued on presentation of an International Driving Permit or national driving licence and a fee.
