Getting Around St. Barth Made Simple

You have three options: browse our directory of all 49 licensed taxis and call or WhatsApp a driver directly, visit one of the two taxi stands (at the airport or in Gustavia), or use our free concierge service and we'll find a driver for you. No app needed, no account required.

Taxis are independent operators: one driver, one car. Private drivers (listed under "Transport on Demand") are companies with a fleet of vehicles and employed chauffeurs. Both offer the exact same services: point-to-point rides, airport and port transfers, standby, and custom itineraries. Call anyone and tell them what you need.

No. Uber, Lyft, and other ride-hailing apps do not operate in Saint-Barthélemy. The island has independent taxi drivers and transport companies with their own fleets. That's exactly why we built DriverStBarth.com. It gives you a simple way to find and contact every available driver on the island.

Yes, and we recommend it, especially during peak season (December through April). You can call the airport taxi stand directly at +590 590 52 40 40, pick a driver from our directory, or let our concierge arrange a pickup for you before you land.

Standby means your driver waits for you. Going to dinner? Your driver drops you off and stays nearby until you're ready to leave. This is one of the most popular options on the island, especially for evenings out. Both taxis and transport companies offer this. Just ask when you call.

It depends on your plans. If you're staying at a resort and making occasional trips to beaches or restaurants, taxis are convenient and affordable. If you want to explore the island freely every day, a rental car gives you more flexibility. Many visitors use a combination of both.

Yes, taxis and private drivers operate at night. Availability can be more limited after midnight, so we strongly recommend pre-booking your return ride or using standby service if you're dining out. Our concierge can arrange this for you.

Pre-book a driver to have someone waiting when you land at Gustaf III Airport (SBH). You can call the airport taxi stand at +590 590 52 40 40, pick any driver from our directory, or let our concierge arrange a pickup before you arrive.

The easiest way is to book your driver on standby. They drop you off at the restaurant and wait until you're done. You can also call or WhatsApp any driver from our list when you're ready to leave, or ask our concierge to arrange a pickup. Most restaurants can also call a taxi for you.

Yes. If you have a specific route or schedule in mind (multiple stops, a full day, a special event), any driver can give you a personalized quote. Just call or WhatsApp them and explain your plan. You can also contact our concierge and we'll get you quotes from available drivers.
