TAXI
There's no shortage of licensed taxis in Nassau and Freeport, where they can be hailed on
the streets. Taxis are also the main form of local transportation in the Family Islands, where
they meet all incoming planes.
All taxi operators are licensed. Taxi fares are fixed by the government based on distance.
Rates are usually for two people, with each additional person charged a flat-rate of $3.
Fixed rates have been established from airports and cruise terminals to specific hotels and
major destinations. These rates should be shown in the taxi. However, you should be aware
of some crafty scams in Nassau and Freeport, where an unscrupulous driver may attempt
to charge additional people the same rate as the first and second passengers.
