# Taxi to Apia from airport Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Samoa
stevokid 11:28 UTC 22 May 2007 | I will be flying in with my family next week to Samoa at a 12:50am arrival time. What I am likely to pay for a taxi to Apia or should I use a hotel transfer (I suspect that this will be more expensive). Any info would be appreciated. Thanks |

If it is on, they are much cheaper and will take you directly to your Apia accommodation. If it isn't running, you could try to get a ride with the Aggie Grey's shuttle that is usually there. Last year they had no pickups and since the guy had to go back to town anyways I got a lift from him for 10 tala. Maybe the other Samoa regulars will be able to tell you the status of the Shuster shuttle. | 1
