Which is the best way to get around Bermuda - by ferries bus or taxi? How 

much time does is take to Crystal Caves from the Dockyard? 

 

We will go on a cruise that stops in Royal Dockyard in May.

Hi, 

 

If you are docking at the Kings Wharf (Royal Naval) Dockyard, its best to take a ferry to Hamilton City. It will take about 20 minutes by a direct ferry compared to a bus ride that takes about an hour.  

 

From Hamilton City you can take bus # 1, 3, 10 or 11 for Crystal Caves which is located at a parish called Hamilton Parish (not same as Hamilton City). 

 

There is also a ferry service from Dockyard ferry stop to St. George (orange route).  

 

But remember, during weekends and non-summer time, ferry service is quite infrequent and some routes do not operate. 

 

If you visit St. George (the historic and heritage town of Bermuda), don't miss the horse drawn carriage ride - it's special. 

 

For nearby parishes like Sandy's, Southampton or Warwick, you can take bus #7 or #8 from the dockyard. 

 

Taxis are quite expensive but available all the time. We generally use them for late night drops at the hotels or cruise ship when ferries or bus services become infrequent. There are taxi stands at the dockyard and you will get plenty of them there.
