Dulcinea's Insight
- Take note of independent sites that explain transportation or general travel issues. These sites are often created by seasoned travelers or residents of a particular place, and generally do not have promotional intentions.
- As with any online transaction, it’s wise to get in touch with a representative from the site, either by phone or e-mail. This is especially true for intra-Caribbean travel, as flexibility and open-endedness are often part of the experience. Learn what restrictions your tickets have, and ask about special offers, which are often available for students, children, seniors, and groups.
- For bike rentals, your best bet is to ask around when you get to the island. There are many small bike rental shops not featured on the Internet. Your hotel may have bikes to borrow, or advice about where to look.
- Even if you can’t book now or want to leave your travel options open, it’s smart to get a sense of what travel throughout the Caribbean will be like once you’re there.
