I too would like to know how much they are supposed to charge. Here's what I do and I found I can get a lower price doing this. When you arrive go outside and look to the right, you will see a line of cabs, ask each driver what his rates are and tell him/her you are taking the cheapest driver The first time I arrived there it cost me FIFTY DOLLARS to get to Marsh Harbour after that it's been as low as $14 using my new system. Give it a try, works for us. Remember though that they charge per person and amount of luggage. How much per person? Anybody's guess, they are very evasive when asked. I know that in town most places cost 2.oo per person transported but onece again ask before you get in and if other cabs are around SHOUT OUT to them to give you a better price; you'll be surprised at how well this works. If they think you are a rich, ignorant American THEY WILL rip you off. As for Susan Knowles, YES YES YES she is a good driver and honest. I wouldn't say the same of her husband Joe though...you know the old saying "opposites attract" I think it applies here. Another guy I like is Papa, he's got a brand new clean cab and he's willing to negotiate a price to get your business. I never thought of giving Susan a call before coming into the airport but I think it's a good idea 'cause she is honest. Hope this helps and if you need anymore info let me know thru my email..what do you plan to do about food...don't believe anyone when they tell you that food at the store is cheap..somethings are but they generally are the things you can't live off of. Just ask I've got info on food, boats, air travel etc.. been going there for years...love it but one must be careful not to get ripped off.
