Guidelines for George Town, Exuma
Getting Around
Safe Taxi's, Water Taxis, Local Car, Boat, PWC & Kayak rentals available.
Remember DRIVE ON THE LEFT SIDE!
Arrivals and departure lounges are separate structures on the property. You will be guided to the correct building after deplaning.
Taxi's and Car Rental right on the premises
Remember to drive on the LEFT side of the road.
Renting a car at least for the first day or two works well since you have the ability to get to the house, drop luggage and stock up groceries and refreshments for your stay, also to get you to and back from restaurants if you don't feel like cooking or got absorbed by the beauty and splendor. You can then on the second day expand on things you planned or check out other exiting places on the island. Cabs also make total sense if you don't feel like driving yourselves and for going to attractions, restaurants at night or shopping. We prefer to use a cab on the last day to meet our flight, it just de-complicates logistics on the last hectic day.
