About this route

From Gustavia to Vitet, our take

Gustavia to Vitet is about 14 minutes, climbing into the hills of the eastern part of the island. Vitet is a residential area of villas with wide views over the Atlantic.

Out of Gustavia, we count around 70 euros for this ride before midnight, plus 20 euros after midnight. The drive itself takes about 14 minutes when traffic flows. Friday afternoons and Sunday brunch hours can slow things down a little.

Same logic at the ferry dock in Gustavia, especially when the St. Martin or St. Kitts boats arrive. The cabs you see waiting are usually attached to passengers already. We have seen plenty of confused tourists hop in and get a polite but firm "no, sorry" from the driver.
