Antigua & Barbuda V.C. Bird Airport (ANU) to Island Hotels – Round-Trip Private Transfer

When arriving in Antigua, the last thing you want is to wrestle with long taxi lines or share a shuttle with strangers after a long flight. This private, round-trip transfer service from V.C. Bird Airport (ANU) to your hotel offers a quiet, comfortable alternative—no fuss, just door-to-door service, with a personal driver waiting for you. At $279.47 per group (up to three people), it’s a practical option that balances cost and convenience, especially for those traveling with luggage or in a small group. The journey typically takes about one hour and fifty minutes round-trip, making it a straightforward way to start and end your Antigua adventure.
What we love most about this service is the personalized experience—your driver will meet you with a name sign, help with luggage, and you’ll have contact details a day before for added peace of mind. Plus, the vehicles are fully licensed and insured, and equipped to handle various weather conditions, ensuring a safe and comfortable ride. The fact that child seats are available upon request is a bonus for families traveling with little ones.
One potential consideration is the waiting time policy—the package includes 60 minutes of free waiting time after your flight lands, but any delay beyond that could incur additional costs. Also, the maximum distance of 80 km means that if your hotel is farther afield, costs or arrangements might vary. This service is best suited for travelers who value comfort, efficiency, and personalized service over the unpredictability of taxis or shared shuttles.
This transfer service is ideal for first-time visitors wanting reliable transportation or anyone arriving after a long flight and craving a smooth, stress-free start to their holiday.
