Local Transport in Menorca

Taxis

These are plentiful and good value over short distances although they can be expensive for journeys across the island. Taxis with a green light are available for hire and can be hailed anywhere.

Feel free not to bother tipping a grumpy driver who refuses to help with luggage but in all other circumstances, tips in taxis are generally accepted to be around 10% of the total fare.
