Taxi questions
- How much is a taxi from Providenciales airport to Grace Bay?
- Expect roughly $28 to $35 per person for the 15 to 20 minute ride. Rates are government regulated and quoted per person, not per car.

- Many taxis prefer cash. If you need to pay by card, book a private transfer in advance rather than relying on the airport taxi rank.
- Are taxis safe in Turks & Caicos?
- Yes. Licensed taxis are safe and drivers are generally friendly. Use the official PLS taxi rank or ask your resort to call a recommended driver.
- Should I tip taxi drivers in Turks & Caicos?
- Tipping is appreciated. 10% to 15% is standard for good service, especially when drivers help with luggage.
