The best way to get around Guadeloupe is by rental car, available at the airport in Pointe-à- Pitre and at the resorts, but agencies are typically booked out over the Christmas period.
Taxis are metered and fairly expensive, especially at night.
Much cheaper and not much of a drop in quality is the public bus system which covers most routes, although from Saturday afternoon to Monday morning there is not much in the way of a service. Pick up buses from the stops (marked blue) depending on the destination written on the front.
