Insurance matters.
    TAH, why did you quote my post for your comment? This is a tourist forum, a local taxi driver is of course, a red plate driver; without it one is not a taxi. Many of them now have a little TAXI sign on the top of the vehicle and checkerboard-type striping along the sides, easy to see.

    Just because you said if there was a local that you feel comfortable with, to have them take you as a guide. To me that implied they would be your driver?

    You missed this part: "...pay them for their time, their fares and meals on your adventure..." meaning pay their route taxi fares while they are accompanying you, on the trip to Lucea and beyond via route taxis, as Smith outlined. In the next sentence I wrote OR hire a local taxi driver...

    Fair enough. I was mostly trying to clarify for any new visitors who may not know the ropes.

    I'll be there June 1-7 for my honeymoon. We are staying at an AI, but we are hoping to do Mayfield Falls, Blue Hole, One Love Pub Crawl, and going to Margaritaville and walking the beach. Are we trying to do to much? Do you think we could squeeze in Calico Jack's? Any advice or suggestions would be awesome. Thanks to all!
