Getting About
Introduction
Menorca is split up into different regional authorities which also dictate that bus and taxi services are divided up by several companies and generally tied to a region.
Buses
If you want to travel from one end of the island to the other you will need to change either at Ciutadella or Mahon whose bus terminals act as a hubs for local services. Dress respectfully, no bare tops -wear a T shirt! Check websites for latest routes, fares and conditions.

Taxis
Taxis do not use meters instead fare prices are regulated based on distance, though journeys crossing a boundary into another operating area may have an extra charge. Check price before starting off. Your driver should be looking up the price on a table, if not ask to see it.
Menorca Tips
There is a comfortable (day and night ) Water Taxi service available between Es Castell and Mahon harbours. Check prices locally but around 10 Euros one way for an adult and is a great way to travel between the two locations- A mini boat tour in one!. Tel 616 428 891 for reservations.
Scooter Hire
Vastly overpriced in our opinion-in fact local newspaper ran article about this in 2009. Ask but don't be suprised to pay 25 Euros min per day ( to this add helmet hire ) , which is not much less than a small hire car.
