Getting Around

Whether you want to sit in the driver's seat, have your own driver or are looking for land-based tours, there are a variety of options to make getting around while you’re in the Cayman Islands a breeze.

Friendly cab services are at your beck and call from Grand Cayman resorts, Owen Roberts International Airport and the ship dock in George Town. There are also several reputable rental car companies available, allowing you to pick up your vehicle at the airport or at several locations around the islands. You’ll find a few public bus stops in the busier districts too, but these buses can be flagged down from anywhere along the side of the road as well.

Driving on the left side of the road provides adventure and round-a-bouts provide good stories to tell when you return home. Caymanians are naturally friendly people and we are always happy and willing to lend a helping hand if you need directions and if you are really stuck, we have been known to drive there with you, just to make sure!

Car rentals available include Jeeps, Mini Vans, 4 doors, and SUV’s. 
Renting mopeds and scooters are also a great way to explore the islands on your own. 

If cars, scooters or mopeds don’t work for you, the Cayman Islands offer taxis, buses and limos for efficient and prompt service, regardless of your transportation needs and requests.
