Metered taxis can be found at the airport and most large hotels. Taxis can also double as tour operators if you want to piece together your own sightseeing tour of the island. Drivers turn off the meter in such circumstances and generally turn on the charm. Their knowledge and commentary can add plenty of local color to a tour. Expect to pay an hourly rate.

Bermuda's narrow winding roads can be challenging for riders not used to mopeds so make sure you're comfortable on two wheels before you hire a machine for the week. Enough visitors spill their mopeds for the term 'road rash' to be part of the island vernacular. To hire a moped you need to be 16 years old wear a helmet and promise to drive on the left side of the road. Strangely bicycling is not a particularly popular way of getting round though some moped rental stores do rent bikes. Be prepared to work up a sweat.

Ferries are a scenic way to get around and in some cases are much faster than the bus. Ferries connect Hamilton with Paget Warwick and the Somerset/Dockyard area. Walking is the obvious way to get around Bermuda's towns but walking between towns is not much fun since the narrow roads rarely have sidewalks. Horse and carriage rides are for romance rather than getting from A to B.
