Public transportation is not the best here in Puerto Rico; therefore one of the best ways to get from A to B is to use the taxis that are regulated by the Puerto Rico Tourism Company. (PRTC). Taxis are readily available at the airport, cruise ship piers (when a cruise ship is docked) and hotels. You can also hail taxis from the street.
The PRTC has divided San Juan area it Zones and prices are fixed based on starting Zone and ending Zone.
