tlreze Posted April 4, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 4, 2018 looking for the best route/options for 5 adults and infant to get from dockyard to Crystal Cave to Aquarium/Zoo and back to the Dockyard We can reverse cave/zoo I know NCL has free ferry to St George so that is an option or we buy ferry pass to Hamilton I am just confused on what buses to take and where to catch them? Any help would be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlreze Posted April 4, 2018 Author #2 Share Posted April 4, 2018 FOUND THIS - can anyone confirm if this looks correct suggested route Buy an unlimited transit day pass for all members of the group. It costs $19 for adults Take the 9:30 AM ferry from the Dockyards to St. George. (45 minutes) - USE NCL FREE FERRY Go see the sites of St. George. I wasn’t too fond of St. George, so we only stayed an hour. At the ferry station, go up the hill and wait for ANY bus to Hamilton. The map claims only the 1 and 3 bus go to the caves, but the 10 and 11 bus go there as well. The stop for the caves will be next to an ice cream shop on your left. Follow the path to the cave box office. (15 minutes) 10 and 11 bus requires walk off the bus stop - not at entrance - try to use #1 or #2 After you’re done with the caves (1 hour), take the 10 or 11 bus to the Bermuda Aquarium, Museum and Zoo (BAMZ) (15-20 minutes). Admission costs $10 for adults . (2 hours) Take the 10 or 11 bus to Hamilton. Walk to the ferry and take the next one back to the Dockyards.

Bus routes #'s 1 & 3 go by the access road to the caves; bus route #'s 10 & 11 drop you at the Swizzle Inn and you take the path which starts in the parking lot of Bailey's Ice Cream to the caves. When done at the caves, follow the path back to the SI and take an inbound #'s 10 & 11 bus to get to BAMZ. From there, take an inbound #'s 10 & 11 bus to get to Hamilton.

SailBadtheSinner Posted April 16, 2018 #10 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Is King’s Square where you get off at St. George’s ferry terminal? No, it is not; it is about a 5-7 minute walk from the ferry docks. It is St George's town square, and it is located on the land side of Ordnance Island, SBtS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles4515 Posted April 16, 2018 #11 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Is King’s Square where you get off at St. George’s ferry terminal? If you want a taxi and there are none available at the St. George’s ferry terminal, walk up to Water Street which is a street closed vehicle traffic during the day. You would walk a few blocks along Water Street until it ends at King's Square. There should be taxis at the junction of Water Street and King's Square.
