Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 22, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are readily available 24/7 outside the arrivals hall. Fares are regulated and metered, but they are significantly higher at night (from 8 PM to 6 AM), on Sundays, and on public holidays. It is a convenient but more expensive option for getting to your destination.

Rental Cars

Several car rental agencies, including international brands like Avis, Europcar, and Hertz, have desks located directly in the arrivals hall. Renting a car offers the most flexibility for exploring the island. Booking in advance is highly recommended, especially during peak season.

Public Transportation

The local bus service (RTC) is the most economical option, but it is not ideal for travelers with much luggage. The bus stop is not directly at the terminal; it requires a short walk to the main road. Service can be infrequent, particularly in the evenings and on weekends, so it's best for those with a flexible schedule.
