Taxi

On Grand Cayman, taxis operate 24 hours a day, but if you anticipate a late night, make pickup arrangements in advance. You can generally not hail one on the street, but you can call for one. Taxis carry up to three passengers for the same price. Fares are set by the government, and they're not cheap, so ask ahead. The tariff increases with the number of riders and bags. Luxury limo service sare also available. Most taxi drivers will take you on an island tour at an hourly rate of about $25 for up to three people. Be sure to settle the price before you start off and agree on whether it's quoted in U.S. or Cayman dollars.

Taxis are scarcer on the Sister Islands; rates are also fixed and fairly prohibitive. Your hotel will provide recommended drivers.
