St. George's Airport Transfer Guide (2026) - All Options
Airport transfers in St. George's: taxi, bus, train, and shuttle options from the airport to the city center, with costs and journey times in Grenada.
Helpful Tips
Water taxis from the Carenage dock serve Grand Anse every 15-20 minutes and cost roughly half a land taxi fare.
Local minibuses marked 'Grand Anse' or 'St. Paul's' leave from the Esplanade bus terminal. Flag one anywhere along the route and pay the conductor in cash.
Download the 'Grenada Ride' app before arrival to book registered taxis with fixed fares and avoid haggling.
The 1-mile walk from the cruise terminal to Fort George saves a taxi fare and takes the same time as driving during busy port days.
Common Scams to Avoid
Unlicensed 'airport taxis' hover just beyond the official taxi queue at Maurice Bishop International Airport. They quote inflated flat rates to hotels in Grand Anse or St. George's. Walk past them. Use only the dispatcher-managed taxi rank inside the terminal. Fares are regulated. Receipts are issued. Simple choice.
Baggage porters inside the arrivals hall sometimes insist on handling bags even when travelers decline. Then they demand a high fee per suitcase. Say 'no thank you' and keep control of your luggage. Tipping is voluntary. Keep it modest. Only when you asked.
Currency-exchange booths in the airport departure area advertise 'no commission'. They give rates far below the market rate shown on electronic boards. Pull up the mid-market rate on your phone. Compare before you hand over cash. Or wait. Banks in town pay fairer.
