All About St Croix Taxis, Taxi Fares & Rates
We strongly recommend to get a rental car while staying at Villa Margarita, otherwise you’ll miss much of what the island offers.
But if you choose not to, taxis are a popular transportation choice for visitors to St Croix. Take note that St Croix taxis are not metered; rates are per person and per destination and are set by the government’s Taxi Commission. Keep reading to learn more about USVI taxi tariffs information, rates and fares.
Since rates are subject to change, it’s always best to first verify the fare with your taxi driver before departing.

Useful Tips
- St Croix taxis are almost always available at the cruise ship dock when ships are in port, at the airport, the Seaplane Terminal, at the taxi stand area in down town Christiansted and usually at large hotels and popular restaurants/bars.
- Licensed St Croix taxis are labeled with: a taxi placard or dome light on the roof, license plates that indicate Taxi status, On Duty/Off Duty sign in the window of the vehicle and a sign, usually on the fender, indicating passenger capacity. The drivers personal identification/taxi license should be on the vehicles dash board.
- There are drivers that run “gypsy taxis” in their personal vehicles. They do not adhere to the rules of the taxi commission and are use at your own risk. They often hustle outside bars and grocery stores.
- Taxi tariffs in Virgin Islands in general have not changed much over the years, so don’t expect Uber-style efficiency and cut-throat competition. Which is nice, it’s a laid-back island after all.
- Although rates are standardized it is strongly recommended that you speak to the driver and agree to your total rate (for you, your group, your luggage, waiting, tour) before getting into St Croix taxis.
