Getting around in Sarasota
By Taxi
If you don't like driving and wouldn't want to hire a car, then commuting
through taxis is more comfortable. The main taxi services within the city are Diplomat
Taxi, Green Cab Taxis, and Yellow Cabs. The taxi drivers are good people
to talk to and can give you few handy tips for traveling within the city.
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 Sarasota. While driving around,
you will find that parking is never a problem with the exception downtown where
it is scarce and it is limited to 3 hours. But at other places like Adams Drive
at Monroe and Madison drives, you can park free.
Sarasota 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 Sarasota 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.
