Car Rentals
There are a number of car rental agencies on the island offering vehicles for rent. But before you get on the road, you will need to obtain a driver's license which cost $30 (US$12). You must be between 25 and 65 years old, with two years' driving experience to qualify for a driver's permit. Traffic use the left side of the road, most of which are well maintained.

Bus Service
Dominica’s public bus system operated by private minibus owners, offers an affordable and efficient way to travel across the island, with routes connecting most towns and villages through the capital, Roseau.
This system is ideal for travelers who enjoy free-spirited, on-island exploration without the cost of car rentals or taxis.
Bus stops can be found at designated points throughout the city depending on your destination.
- Best Days to Travel: Buses run most reliably Monday through Saturday, from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Service is limited or unavailable on Sundays and public holidays.
- Fares: Bus fares range from EC$2.00 to EC$12.00 (approx. US$0.74 to US$4.41), depending on the distance.
- Tips for Travelers: Look for minibuses with license plates starting with “H”, “HA”, or “HB”. Buses don’t follow strict schedules—they depart when filled—so some flexibility and patience are helpful.
