Getting to Les Saintes Islands in Guadeloupe
Discover tips for getting to Les Saintes in Guadeloupe: taxi from the airport, maritime ferry, scooters and small cars
Les Saintes is a small archipelago located just a few kilometers south of Guadeloupe. Les Saintes is made up of 2 main islands: Terre-de-Haut and Terre-de-Bas, which offer visitors white sand beaches, turquoise waters and a particularly peaceful local life. If you're looking for a spectacular spot for your vacation, Les Saintes is the perfect place, with its incredible world-famous bay, to relax in one of our magnificent ZeWelcome villas . Discover below the different options for getting to Les Saintes in Guadeloupe.
Taking a Taxi to Trois-Rivières
The simplest way to reach Terre-de-Haut is to book your taxi transfer via WhatsApp or SMS with Ken: +590 690 53 36 85, letting him know your flight number, your arrival time and the number of people. Allow one hour's drive to reach Trois-Rivières from the airport.
Taking a Shuttle to Terre-de-Haut
To get to Les Saintes in Guadeloupe, the safest shuttles are those of the CTM Deher company, which operates 3 passenger vessels. Book your tickets online.
We recommend choosing the last boat. If you arrive early, you can change your tickets at the company's office in Trois-Rivières.
Allow half an hour for the crossing.
Other Options for Getting to Les Saintes in Guadeloupe
You can also contact Karibtour, who offers road taxi and private boat services.
Or try: La Billetterie Saintoise, who will take care of everything for you.
Rent a Car on Terre-de-Haut
If you'd like to rent an electric car during your stay, I recommend those from Aquablue. Very easy to handle. They seem to be in high demand, so book ahead. The villa has parking for a small electric car along with a charging outlet.
If you'd rather have electric bikes or a scooter, those are easier to find on the spot.
Getting to Villa Rackam, a vacation rental by ZeWelcome
Villa Rackam is a 15-minute walk on flat ground. The last 50m is uphill and the path is too narrow for taxis.
If you're carrying a lot of luggage, a taxi can drop you off at the bottom of the hill. Book it with J Paul: +590 690 30 56 80. He'll be waiting for you in front of the town hall.
Villa Rackam offers a breathtaking view over the Bay of Les Saintes
