Thank you for sharing this. Do you know if they require cash for payment or if they accept credit cards as well?

 

Also does anyone have any experience on the sightseeing tours listed on here or know what they might include?

[Ms411]

Most require cash, but there are some that take reservations and payment online. You would have to google for current tours.

 

Most take you to the same spots unless they have a relationship with a farm or somebody who has animals. Some will take you to a place with local food. It also depends on whether it's a private or public tour. There's more flexibility with private tours. Some tours include beach time.

yes, the rates were an unpleasant surprise compared to 2019-2021 rates.

 

 

interestingly enough, we went to Sapphire beach ($15 pp) and then the taxi continued to Coki beach ($14 pp). Weird, right?

Sapphire is further than Coki so maybe that driver was going to drop people off at Coki on the way back, and there may have been a better opportunity for taxi to pick people up who may want to return to ship.
