Looking for advice on taking a route taxi to little bay. Is this possible? Where do I catch taxi? How much should I expect to pay?

If you have to ask then maybe you should just hire a chartered ride. If your not aware, visitors using route taxis is a somewhat controversial topic on this board.

Kevin is spot on. My friends just arrived yesterday first timers took what they thought was a legit Juta bus and the driver took them only half way to Negril told them to transfer to another Juta to arrive Kuyaba in Negril cost was $140.00 one way for two people. Big rip off if you are not familiar so beware!!

From your post you're not too familiar with the route cab system.
Get a private ride. I suggest my son Linston
Cap
linston@redplate-negril.com
Always ask price before u ride and be specific . I'd even do the money exchange prior to boarding. And there is lots of posts that explain the do s and don't s they helped be big time to learn the ropes or get linston . He is highly recommend on this board and is reasonably priced and honnest
Thanks for the advice. Sorry I asked a controversial question. I forgot this is the proper board.

Do a thread search on Route Taxis. You'll find plenty and I mean PLENTY of discussion.
A couple years ago after not visiting for a loooong time, I stayed at a hotel. They set me up with their "van'' for a ride. All I wanted to do was get dropped off at Ricks for awhile, then a pick up when
I was done.
They charged me 25 bucks for round trip. All I had was two twenties. I gave the driver the two twenties, and he said to me he did not have any change...... Fool me once, shame on you......
After that, I bring PLENTY of ones,and fives, and definitely take me some route taxis...
So takinitslow, my answer to your question is if you have a certain place to go, negociate whats fair for both of you, and understand you will be paying more than a local would pay........fair enough.
See ya on the beach !!!!
I know wasn't thinking when I posted this. That's why I try not to ask anymore questions on here. Just had a little memory slip there.

The answers in response to your question seemed very kind, in light of the unfortunate incidences that have happened to some people that didn't understand the route taxi system.
Not having done it...I only know that it's 110j a person from Negril to Orange Hill...it should be about the same from Orange hill to Little Bay. The other issue you may run into...there are not many route taxis that would drive that route from Negril.
Just for definition purpose...if you negotiate a price with a taxi driver you are officially chartering the ride not using the route system.
