Getting around in Jacksonville
Taxi
If you don't like driving and wouldn't want to hire a car, then commuting
through taxis is more comfortable. Though the taxi drivers charge a little more
than the rest of United States' average, they make up for it by becoming
the unofficial guide while driving you to places. Fares are set by the state department
and are always non-negotiable.
Car Hire
Unless time isn't an issue with you and you don't mind waiting for hours
to get into a bus, a car is a must to experience Jacksonville; due to Jacksonville's
low density and massive size, none of the destination is within walking distance
of each other.
Jacksonville
Car Hire is definitely worth "going in" for as it will give you
the freedom to see the city at your own pace. Usually a person between the age brackets
of 18 to 75 years with a valid license is allowed to drive a private, non-commercial
vehicle in the city. If you like to drive, don't forget to carry your driver's
license. For foreigners, International Driving Permit is compulsory.
Depending on the way you're travelling, there are many types of Jacksonville car rental services that can
make it convenient for you to move comfortably between hotels, places of interest,
restaurants and airports. Pick from economy vehicles to go for a trip around the
city to full size vehicles for longer inter-city excursions - all at best
prices.
