I’m going to be in SXM for a day on a cruise. I would like to spend the day at Orient Beach, and at Grand Case. What is the best way to do this? Is there enough “traffic” going on, yet, to rely on cabs for each of the pieces of our trip (Phillipsburg to Orient Beach. Orient Beach to Grand Case. Grand Case to Orient Beach. Orient Beach back to Phillipsburg).
What do people recommend? And if cabs aren’t really running, yet, can I hire a driver for the day? And if so, does anyone know some good ones? And approximately what would that cost?
Thank you very much!
Jared
If there is a ship or multiple ships in port, there will be taxis running. If you have a group of several people, I would try to negotiate a deal with the same driver for your entire day. I know WIlfred Brooks is highly recommended so you might try him. WILFRED BROOKS. His van sustained damage but perhaps he is back up and running. Cost is negotiable and will vary depending on the number of people in your group. You can also try to negotiate your deal with the driver in line or the dispatcher. Make it clear what you want, agree on a price and make it clear that payment and tip will be made upon completion of your tour. Good luck.
J.D.
