Car rental
The easiest way to get around Tahiti is by taxi or rental car. If you plan on visiting many destinations in the region, it is a good idea to rent a car to save money. You can also rent bicycles or use public transportation to get around town. Most accommodations offer bicycle rentals. Just make sure to avoid traffic, which is often very heavy.
The main airport in Tahiti is the Fa’a’a International Airport. Car hire deals are available in this airport and you should book a car well ahead of time to avoid the hassle of booking a rental at the airport. A website like GoSee can help you find the best rental deals.
If you’re looking for an economical car rental, Europcar has an excellent range of vehicles to choose from. They also offer free delivery between 7:30 and 7: 30 pm and a courtesy child seat. You’ll also be able to book online and get special rates on your first day.
French Polynesia is also home to many car rental companies. There are two basic types of hire: self-drive and chauffeur-driven. If you decide to hire a driver, it’s best to choose a local driver, as they’ll know the island better. And remember that the speed limit on the island is 40km/h.
