Taxi Gustavia to Toiny

Q: Where do we find a taxi in Gustavia?

The main stand is on rue de la Republique near the tourist office, opposite the harbor. We rarely use it as our first option — calling a driver directly or messaging our WhatsApp concierge usually gets a car faster.

About this route

From Gustavia to Toiny, our take

Toiny is the longest in-island taxi ride from Gustavia, around 22 minutes through scenic mountain roads. The far southeastern coast feels wild and untouched, with crashing Atlantic surf.

Out of Gustavia, we count around 45 euros for this ride during the day, plus 5 euros after 6:30pm or on Sundays, and 10 euros between midnight and 6am. The drive itself takes about 22 minutes when traffic flows. Friday afternoons and Sunday brunch hours can slow things down a little.

On Sundays the road is quieter. Fewer drivers work, and the ones who do add 5 euros to every fare. We plan dinner timing accordingly when we do not have a rental car.

How we book

Two ways that actually work

There is no Uber or Lyft on the island. We either call a driver ourselves, or our concierge matches us with one. Both are free.

Call a driver yourself

Browse the full directory and pick a driver yourself. Most prefer a WhatsApp message with pickup, destination and time. Confirm the price before the ride.
