AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Talk Belize Travel Exit Fee & Water Taxi Costs ??????

1 1/2 days ---- We've been hearing (reading) different quotes on the costs of exit fees & the cost of taxis from the airport to the water & from the water to San Pedro & back .... HELP !!!!

exit fees SHOULD be included in your airlines tickets.....look at the codes should see something like FU*********

we thought so in the Dominican one time also & they still nailed us.....

Ya, maybe that's what the "FU" is for.....

The watertaxis are normally ($15us/$30bz)one way.
There has been a special for (10us/$20bz)one way.

The taxi from International to the Belize City watertaxi is usually ($20us/$40bz), but I think they add for over 2 people.

For four people you can save some money but lose island vacation time. Less than four, take the plane. The view is worth it.

Don't know if everyone has heard but the Thunderbolt Express went bankrupt.
The other ferry to Belize City is still running.

The local Island Ferry cost just went up as well and is now $10.00BZ one way even for the locals who used to pay $5.00BZ.

I fly TACA and the departure tax was included in my ticket, and just returned on the 3rd of March.

I was reading on Frommers travel there is an airstrip in Belize City where the flights were half the cost of the standard $98. Does anyone know about that?

yep you fly out of the municipal airport, ( city airport) but you break even on 2 because of the cost of the taxis, after 2 people it makes sense if you like to ride the taxi, spend a little time chatting with the driver etc. you end up cutting your air by 50 percent to san pedro, i do it all the time and learn something new from the taxi driver each time... and enjoy the 'down time' john in denver

what is the cost of the taxi from international airport to the municipal airport? and who do I contact for that flight info?

about $20 US each way.
