Meet Anthony Clarke, Your Bajan Driver

On The House Taxi Service is owned and driven by Anthony Clarke, a Barbadian professional driver based at Mullins in St. Peter. Anthony has spent years on these roads — airport runs at 4am, cruise mornings in Bridgetown, wedding parties on the west coast and slow, happy island tours that end with his own rum punch on a beach at sunset.

Guests remember him for the same three things: he shows up early, he treats you like a guest in his home, and he knows the island well enough to change the plan when the weather or the traffic says so. That is why most of our work comes from repeat visitors and the people they tell.

  • ★Licensed, insured Barbadian owner-operator based in Mullins, St. Peter
  • ★Answers the phone himself, 24 hours a day

Barbados Taxi Service — Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers to the questions travellers and locals ask most about taxis, transfers and tours in Barbados.

▸How much does a taxi cost from Barbados Airport (BGI) to my hotel?

Taxi fares in Barbados are set by standardized route rates rather than meters, and they are quoted per private vehicle rather than per passenger. The figure depends on your pickup point, destination and the size of vehicle your group needs. When you book with On The House Taxi Service, we confirm your exact fare up front by email or phone before you travel — no surprises, no hidden fees.

▸Do taxis in Barbados have meters?

No. Barbados taxis do not use meters. Fares are based on government-recommended rates for common routes. Reputable operators like On The House Taxi Service quote your price in advance so you know exactly what you'll pay before you get in the vehicle.

▸Should I book my Barbados airport transfer in advance?

Yes — booking ahead is strongly recommended, especially during the winter high season (December to April) and around Crop Over festival. Pre-booking guarantees a professional driver waiting for you in arrivals with no queuing, and it locks in your fare. Send us your flight number and we monitor delays so your pickup is always on time.

▸Can I pay in US dollars, and do drivers accept cash?

Yes. Both Barbados dollars (BBD) and US dollars (USD) are accepted island-wide, with a fixed exchange rate of BBD $2 to USD $1. Most taxi journeys are paid in cash. If you need another arrangement for a tour or group booking, just ask when you book and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

▸How long is the drive from the airport to Bridgetown or the West Coast?

From Grantley Adams International Airport, Bridgetown is about 30 minutes, the South Coast hotels 15–25 minutes, and West Coast resorts around Holetown or Speightstown 45–60 minutes depending on traffic. Your driver will always take the most efficient route and share local tips along the way.

▸Do you pick up from the cruise ship terminal in Bridgetown?

Absolutely. We provide punctual pickups at the Port of Bridgetown cruise terminal for shore excursions, private island tours and beach transfers. Tell us your ship name and docking time, and your driver will be waiting to make the most of your day ashore — and get you back to the ship with time to spare.

▸How much does a private island tour of Barbados cost and how long does it take?

A private sightseeing tour of Barbados typically lasts 4–6 hours and is priced per vehicle, not per person, which makes it excellent value for couples, families and small groups. Popular stops include Cherry Tree Hill, Bathsheba on the rugged East Coast, Rihanna Drive, Hunte's Gardens, the wild green monkeys and Oistins Fish Fry. Contact us with your group size and wish list and we'll quote a fair, all-inclusive price.

▸Can you handle large groups, luggage or special requests like child seats?

Yes. Our fleet includes comfortable multi-passenger vans ideal for group transportation, wedding parties, cricket tours and conference transfers, with ample space for luggage, golf bags and equipment. Child seats and accessibility needs can be arranged on request — just mention it in your booking message.
