Taxis and car seats in ports?

[krmlaw]

Just read the post below. Similiar questions, except about the caribbean.

 

We will be porting in SXM, St Thomas and Nassau, bahamas.

 

What do you guys do about taxis?

 

I really dont want to have to bring a car seat, but want LO to be safe.

Don't take taxis...take buses, ship transport for excursions, or walk!

I just do excursions that don't require a taxi. We often just walk around and then go back to the ship to enjoy the uncrowded pools and slides.

This was our plan as well, to avoid having to fuss with a car seat. I know most ports at a minimum usually have a small area/shopping village/etc. that is within walking distance from the ship. Some places do not though; I don't recall anything within walking distance in Belize, for example.
