When you touch down in Grenada you will find yourself at the Point
Salines International Airport. It’s not the busiest or the biggest in
the Caribbean, but it’s big enough for Grenada’s needs. Aircraft as
large as Virgin Atlantic 747s arrive there. Everything inside is by the
book and simple. There are plenty of taxis available upon exiting the
arrivals hall, but we arrange a transfer on arrival for our guests - so
do look out for Mandoo. You’ll have a landing card
to fill out as well as a customs declaration form. For more information
about the airport, you can visit their website at this link:

You can use a diverse array of transportation. You can drive,
take a taxi or a water taxi, board the ferry, hire a motorboat, jump on
a bus, take a plane or just walk. It depends on where you go, your
desire for diversity and the time that you have to get where you are
heading.
To get around the city of St. George’s, your best option is to park
and ride to town on a bus; whilst in the town, to walk. Do
make sure you have some decent shoes in which to walk with, as this
town is extremely hilly and not for the faint-hearted.
There is a regular bus service that is both frequent and inexpensive,
approximately $2EC. Or take a taxi into town. There
will be lots of chances to find a taxi back to your point of departure.
A good idea is to hire a taxi to tour the island - which will take the
strain off the driver with that hot sun beating down on their
face. Plus the tour guide will know more history about the
island than your driver. The tour will take you a good day to
see the island. We recommend Mandoo Tours, who have won many
Tourist awards and have been our meet and greet representatives for the
past five years. There are also mini vans that can take you
on a tour through the city and to the rest of the island
Persons 13 years of age and older are required to pay EC$50 (approx
US$20 or £14).
Persons from 5 to 12 years of age are EC$25 (approx US$10
or £7). Children under 5 years are exempt.
