Taxi to Harrison Caves, Barbados

[bdruzin]

Does anyone have any taxi contacts for a return trip from Port to Harrison caves and what did you pay?

It's been several years, but I recall comparing the cost of taking a taxi or just booking the ship's tour and the ship's excursion was far cheaper and less complicated. I tend to like planning my own excursions, but sometimes - when the attraction is far from the ship - making use of the ship's transfer bus ends up being much less expensive. As I recall, they did do a bit of an island tour on the way back. Pretty typical...you know, you're in a bus.

I suspect she's right -that a ship's tour and a hired taxi

would weigh-up well against ea.other,

with the ship's tour possibly winning the competition.
Local taxis are not cheap.

 

Seeing as the caves are slap-bang in the middle of the island, up in the highlands

you ARE going to see a fair chunk of the inland island, just coming and going!
And it'll not be the standard Coastal Scenery thing.

I'd do the ships tour like we did.
