Airport Transport

 

Package Holidays

Most tour operators arrange transport for their clients. The trend isnow not to include this in the advertised price and to charge for this service as an extra. Thischange is useful if you prefer to hire a car or use a taxi.  Look for your tour operators rep as you leave customs. The rep will check your name against there list and direct you to your transit coach.

 

Taxi

Taxis are available from stands near airport arrivals.

Buses run from near to arrivals outside Zones A and C. There are frequent bus services between the airport and the capital, as well as other destinations on the island. For more information contact GLOBAL (tel: (0)902 381 110).
