gartam Posted February 12, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Has anyone taken a taxi to the falls from the port in Amber Cove? Or, does anyone know how much a taxi would cost to do this? There will be 8 of us. Thanks for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandycruzr Posted February 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 13, 2017 We paid $80 round trip. The official posted price is $80 for 4 people plus an extra $7 for each additional person. It was well worth it! The driver waited for us and gave us a little tour of the area...even stopping to get some local fruits for us to try! His name was Rafael Diaz and he was a blast!

sandycruzr Posted February 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I forgot to mention. The posted price described above is one way. There are also non-official taxis outside the port but we decided against doing that due to a fellow cruiser having a very bad experience with an unlicensed driver from outside the port.

gartam Posted February 14, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Thanks for your info! Since you paid $80 round trip and the posted price was $80 one way, did you negotiate to make it a round trip? I'm not so adventurous that I'd go "outside" for a taxi--we'll stick with those at the port. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandycruzr Posted February 15, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Yes we negotiated with the man at the taxi stand. Our driver spoke English and we had a great time. Enjoy! Thanks for your info!

crmc Posted February 15, 2017 #6 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I'm wondering if it would be possible to do this in the afternoon. What time did you leave and what was the total trip time? We'll be there overnight on the Fathom, so don't need to worry about the ship leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewsing with fam Posted March 6, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 6, 2017 How many people were in the taxi for $80 r/t? Thanks, Crewsing with fam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
