Guadaloupe Buses

[Katomerikaf]

Can anyone help!

I have already tried the usual route of destinations on cruise critic but can't seem to find an answer!

Has anyone got any info or experience on local buses/vans from Point a Pitre to Deshaies ?

We want to go and visit this area so we can explore Death in Paradise

I investigated this recently. There is a fair bit of info if you Google 'death in paradise location' and look at the tripadvisor responses.

It appears that buses can be quite random and indirect so you may eventually get there but returning may be a problem. Taxis look pricey. There doesn't seem to be an actual true location as they use various places plus props. However it is set mainly in Deshaises.

My French is tres petit so that could be troublesome as it seems very little English is spoken. Obviously you need euros rather than dollars.

We are going on the botanical garden and Deshaises beach trip and hope to see some of the location.

We were there in March 2015. Did the excursion to the Botanical gardens and Deshaises. You do get to explore the bar and main Street. You also get to see the church and it's side building, which is the police station in the programme. The Botanical gardens was fantastic also. One of the best tours we have done. Highly recommended.

Many thanks Miller. That feedback is most appreciated.

Thanks for the feedback.

Sounds like the trip might be the way to go!!

Unless anyone knows how much and how reliable a taxi would be !!!
