Martinique: By Taxi
By Taxi
Taxis, which are metered, are expensive, though you can try bargaining by offering to pay a flat rate to your destination. Drivers of M. Marital Mercedes Taxis speak English, Spanish, and German as well as French. At Taxi de Place you will find some English-speaking drivers, lots of courtesy, and new SUVs. J. Peloponese provides luxury service in Mercedes Benz cars.
Locals take collectifs (vans holding up to 10 passengers) that cost just a few euros and depart from the waterfront in Fort-de-France to all parts of the island. Don't be shy, because it can mean the difference between paying EUR 3 and, say, EUR 60 for a taxi to reach the same destination. Drivers don't usually speak English. Buses also are an option and are even cheaper. The tourist offices can help with maps and information.
