Public transportation in Bermuda is represented by buses, ferries and cabs.
Buses
There are 11 bus routes on the island of Bermuda (Main Island). The vehicles are painted pink and blue. They are air-conditioned and run from 7:00 to 23:00. Tickets can be purchased from the driver or you can buy a pass in some stores. Buses stop on demand and do not take passengers with large luggage. Stops are marked with blue and pink posts. Buses to Hamilton stop near the pink ones, and buses from Hamilton stop near the blue ones.
Taxi
Taxis are the most convenient way to get to any part of the island. There are cab stands at various points in Bermuda. The best known are on Front Street and Church Street in Hamilton. Many hotels have their own cab stands. Cabs can also be ordered by phone.
Taxi drivers can organize tours of Bermuda. A blue flag on the hood of the car shows that the driver is a qualified tour guide.
Taxi fares are set by law ($4 USD for the first mile (1.6 km) and $1.4 USD for all subsequent miles). It is customary to tip cab drivers 10% of the fare.
Par ferries.
The ferries run between islands and compete successfully with buses. This is primarily due to the spectacle of the journey.
All ferries depart from the Hamilton Ferry Terminal on Front Street. To ride the ferry, you must purchase a ticket or token, which can be purchased at various locations in the city.
There are only 4 ferry routes in Bermuda:
Hamilton to Paget to Warwick.
Hamilton to West End to Royal Naval Dockyard.
Hamilton - Rockaway Express.
Hamilton - Royal-Naval-Dockyard - St. George (operates in the summer season). In the winter season, the route changes to St. Davids - St. George - Hamilton.
