Getting around the island
Driving is on the left; buses, ZR vans and taxis are widely used.
Grantley Adams International Airport (BGI) is on the south coast.
Barbados drives on the left.
Blue government (Transport Board) buses, yellow private buses and white ZR route vans cover most routes for a flat fare.
Taxis do not use meters; agree the fare before you set off.
Roads close for parades on festival days, so plan extra time.
