Car seats in taxis for toddler

I have used a car seat in St Thomas, it took a little while but we found a taxi with a top tether and I did a seatbelt install with a Britax marathon. I had already arranged to store the seat at our destination, which was Coral World. We walked around St Maartin, but I also saw many taxis with top tethers that would be appropriate for a forward facing installation. In my experience, it has been harder to find 3 point seatbelts for use with a booster in the Caribbean than finding vehicles to install a ff car seat.

I'm a retired crst, which is the Canadian car seat tech qualifications.

Any hope for a rf? Especially in st. Maarten, we just want to go to the beach. She's rf at home but if need be could go ff, she'll be 18 months.

Rf would be easier than ff, since you just need a seatbelt to install and at her age angle isn't a big deal. I'd bring a seat with a built in lock off to make it easier.
