Where people go from the airport
Belize City
Hotels, the Water Taxi Terminal on North Front Street and the Municipal Airstrip are a short drive south on the Philip Goldson Highway.
San Pedro and Caye Caulker
A Ryde taxi never crosses water. Ride to the Water Taxi Terminal and take the boat, or fly from the airport on a local airline. Book the boat or the flight with the people who run it.
Cayo
Belmopan, San Ignacio and Benque Viejo are west on the George Price Highway, a long drive. Ryde shows the fare before you book, so you know before you go.
The south
Dangriga, Hopkins, Placencia and Punta Gorda are further still, by road. Many people fly south instead.
Plan your arrival
On ryde.bz and in the Ryde app, Plan your arrival lays out your whole way there: when you land, when your taxi meets you, the boat or the flight on to the cayes, and a golf cart or car waiting for you when you get there.
Licensed airport taxis only
Every driver on Ryde drives their own licensed taxi. Each paper is checked by a person at Ryde, including insurance that covers passengers. Your driver gets the whole fare and every tip.
