- Over 15 years the water taxi has been providing an alternative transport for peeps traveling between the city of San Fernando and our capital, Port-of-Spain right here in Trinidad and Tobago, well Trinidad. So join me, my Trinbago Vibes peeps as we take this service right next to the breakfast shed in town, down to the Sando wharf and provide all you need to know if you decide to ride the Water Taxi

Hi Rajeev this was an awesome video. I use the watertaxi as my main source of transit on a daily basis Monday to Friday, 6am sailing and 3:30pm sailing. The staff and boat crew of the Watertaxi service are sooo nice and helpful. The watertaxi is a SAFE AND RELIABLE source of transport in Trinidad. And daily i thank the Lord for this service 🙏🏾
Nice and thanks for your testaments to the service and staff 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Appreciate your sacrifice to bring us these informative videos about things some of us have never experienced.
You’re most welcome bro 🙏🏽
Love from Jamaica TNT for life
Boom!! One love always and big up Jamaica 🇯🇲 🙌🏽🙌🏽
@@nigelbailey1711 🇯🇲 🇹🇹 ❤️
That's the new fish market that's been constructed.
Ohhh, well let’s see how that turns out
Very good information to share for visitors. Blessings 🎉❤
Blessings to you to Jacqueline
Hi very informative, can't believe I never tried the water taxi before 😊
Thank you and small thing, hopefully you try it soon
Hi Rajeev excellent video, that water 💦 taxi is awesome
Thanks Reshma
I took the water taxi a few times. It took 42 to 43 mins. The Gulf was calm and I like to sit upstairs. It's very relaxing.
Nice and yeah it was a clam ride
Love your 60 seconds of give or take🤣
Cool vid ..as usual. Never travelled on the water taxi. Now I have...virtually.
Thanks and glad you enjoyed it
Hey, Rajeev. Thank you for all these informative videos. I took the water taxi once , a very long time ago. Blessings
Hey Deborah, you’re most welcome
Nice one as always
Thank you
Real good video as usual.
Much appreciated 🙏🏽
Hey breds, I've always wondered what that experience would be like. 48 mins is not too bad at all. Thanks for sharing. BIG UP! 👊
It isn’t and glad you enjoyed it
“What do you do to kill time?”
Me: 😴💤 as soon as I sit 😂
Majority of the ppl who constantly take the sailings will understand.
And the sailings to full to capacity majority of the times. Mostly the early morning sailings from sando to pos and the 3:30.
@@princessk9255 uninterrupted sleep is always a plus, especially when you moving that early…and thanks for sharing your experience 😁
Very nice video bro ❤
Thanks bro 🙏🏽
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO TRINBAGO
Thank you Russell
This ride is amazing, born in PoS oppunity to see Sando😂
Most definitely
I'll try the WT on my future visit, hopefully I can get food and hop on the next one down.
For sure you’ll be able to get food, hopefully I’ll do San Fernando before your next visit
Thank you for sharing i have never used it
You’re most welcome and well now you know all there is to know in case you wanna try it one of these days
Awesome thanks for the ride bro great info but you left me in Sando 😂just kidding
🤣🤣🤣
One of my regrets when I studied in Trinidad, is that i never rode the water taxi. Always wanted t but just couldn't get someone to go with me. Should have gone by myself.
Sometimes you just gotta take that solo trip, but no worries
Great option for mass transit. It would be nice if it were developed to become a reliable and accepted means of transport. Hourly both ways, 7 days per week with additional stops i.e. couva, point fortin etc., coordinated with the bus system and allowing for safe and plentiful parking of automobiles.
Yeah, That would have been ideal
I plan on doing the same thing with the girls in August 👋😊
Nich and I did it before we had kids lol 😅
I think remembered the video when y’all did it, but yeah it would be nice for the girls and y’all can spend a day in Sando one time
Hey everyone please be safe out dear
Same to you Javan
Wow 🎉
Thanks bro 🙏🏽
I believe the term is heading down the island 😂
lol, that term was already coined unfortunately
Would you be covering the boat to Tobago next?
One of these days I will be
I envisioned probably like everyone else that a mega highway sea bridge structure could be built with connecting roads to couva, chase village and sando. Sadly the feasibility of that kinda project is very unfeasible...
Yup, too much destruction to our coastline, especially the eco-system of the Caroni swamp
It's still $15 wow... I did an ad for the service in 2009-2011
Ohh nice and yeah them and the bus still charging 2009 prices
How long is the ride to POS to San Fernando?
This trip took 48 mins, so I would say an hour from boarding to disembarking
Went once with my aunt
Nice
I know this has nothing to do with me but I suggested it in a previous video so I'm gonna take responsibility for this one.
I take this everyday to work, usually sleep through the entire ride. So the boarding in POS is strict because grown middle aged people when left to their own devices they'll literally rush and push. It's actually embarrassing that adult professionals need to be treated like children so it's a necessary evil.
The blame falls on you 🤣🤣 nah that’s totally embarrassing to see grown professionals move like entitled children
The more tings change, the more dey stay DE same....IN TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO.........LACK OF BROUGHTUPSEE😢
Any facilities/ access for the disabled, mobility impaired?
Unfortunately there is not, well at least I didn’t see anything to indicate otherwise
The crew assists in boarding/disembarking those with disabilities/impairments first
First
Boom!!!
Yoo
Whoaa
Fuss
Whoaa
