Transportation in Savaii is plenty. Most people land up at Savaii to get a glimpse of the volcanic vents of Savaii. Transportation in Savaii predominantly consists of ordinary and luxury buses that carry the tourists across Savaii in Samoa. But sometimes, the buses of Savaii depart from their Bus Stations at rather infrequent intervals compelling tourists to look for other modes of transportation in Savaii.
The buses are labeled according to the Bus stations they will stop at after traversing many routes through Savaii. The prime Bus Station of Savaii is situated in the vicinity of the Salelologa shops. If you get in touch with the Samoa Tour Board, they will provide you with all the information that you may need on bus timings and the charges you have to pay.
One of the nicest ways of getting around Savaii in the course of your Savaii tours is by boarding an automobile. There are plenty of these automobiles that ply across Savaii and they will take you to most of the tourist hotspots of Savaii if you book seats in them in advance. On the other hand, if you want to drive around Savaii on your own, you have to get your driving license sanctioned before you attempt driving in Samoa. There are many automobile agents too who can help you to get your driving license stamped by transport authorities of the region.
If you are too late to reserve seats in these privately operated automobiles, you can hail one of the cabs that whiz across Savaii. Taxis in Savaii don’t operate on meters. The rates that cabbies charge are fixed by government authorities. You can get an idea of taxi charges from the transport authorities so that you are not ‘taken for a ride’ by the cabbies when you are disembarking and paying the bills. It is advisable that you verify how much you will pay your cabbie before you board the cab to avoid trouble later on.
The different modes of transportation in Savaii will definitely help you go places in the equatorial and volcano strewn place.
