Transfers, day tours, car rentals. These are an essential part of the quality of your trip to Dominica and must not be neglected.
You can rent a car directly at the Douglas Charles Airport . However, there are no car rental companies offices at the ferry terminal or at Canefield airport . You would need to have pre-arranged pick up and delivery by one of the car rental companies ..

Driving in Dominica is something…. Driving is on the left side of the road. Roads are very narrow. But it is of course a very rewarding experience and gives you total freedom to visit the places you want, when you want, at your pace.
Remember: The southern road (Roseau to La Plaine via Grand bay) is no more. You must drive through Pond Cassé (central forest) to reach La Plaine from Roseau.
You ABSOLUTELY NEED a 4 WD vehicle simply to reach some of the cottages at Citrus Creek Plantation, or to drive to some remote places. . Most car rentals are 4WD anyway, and automatic. Blow your horn frequently.
There are not so many gas stations. Most of them are around Roseau. Close to Citrus Creek Plantation, there is a small gaz station in Rivière Cyrique (a few miles North) . We are lucky ! Always try to keep 1/2 tank minimum.
Day-tours: For those preferring to be driven by a guide, Day tours are available from CitrusCreekPlantation with our partner Ride-On rental. Day tours from $ 60 / day per person (Mini 2) to be on your own with the driver-guide and the vehicle all for you only. Ozzy will be your main driver.
