British Virgin Islands Taxi Rates

You will always find an available taxi on any island in the BVI ... at least on any island with roads! Taxi rates are government regulated and not metered, but calculated on distance. The following rate schedule has been in effect since 1990. Unfortunately, few drivers are honouring these rates any longer and there seems to have been a very long delay in publishing the new rates. (I have been asking for the new rates for at least 6 months!)

Sorry ... we cannot supply current information if the government doesn't make it available!
