Getting around Agana is a breeze with the Lam Lam Trolley system of four color-coded courses that make regularly scheduled runs to most shopping centers, hotels and tourist spots. We bought the 7-day unlimited pass which is a better value at $10 compared to 2 one-day passes at $6 each.
Cars are the way to go. The Guam Mass Transit is unreliable. The Tour companies also have buses but I think you have to be part of their tour. Most hotels are on the Japanese tour bus route, but can be costly and won't take you off to the beaten trail. Rent a car, there are operators that advertise $25 a day for an island bomb (older car).
Jerry's is the best car rental place I have ever used. They will deliver a car in 30 minutes to anywhere on the island. Rates for a used late model car can be as low as $25.00 a day, and new cars are only $40.00. Call or e-mail for reservationsjerrycarrent@guam.netjerrycarrent@netpci.com
The best way to travel to Guam is to fly into Guam International Airport.From the airport you can rent a car this is the best way to get around Guam. Believe me...it's virtually impossible if not literally impossible, to get lost on this very small island. I tried when i first got there...every where i went even when i began to panick thinking i really was lost...led back to the main road...somehow!Grayline of Guam also offers some great tour options.You can in fact, walk from one end of the island to the other in about 8 hours. The island being only 32 miles long and 8-12 miles wide.Aside from flying, a person could for sure sail to Guam, or perhaps a cruise, not sure about the cruiseline theory, but who knows... google it, if your curious enough, I suppose.
There's this certain bus service that goes around the island, and they usually pass by tourist spots and hotels. There are, I think, 3 sets of buses that goes around and you usually see one on the streets - but of course, they only stop on bus stops. As for the tickets: there are one way tickets, then a whole day pass and a week long pass. So if you're staying in Guam for a long time, the cheapest way to tour around the city is by walking and taking the bus from one place to another. Although the bus doesn't cover all the tourist spot, the most that they could do is to drop you off near the place you wanna go to and you could probably ride a cab.
here's an insider info : you can ride for FREE from any surrounding hotel to DFS(Duty Free Shop mentioned in the SHOPPING section) from any major hotels .DFS is located smack in the middle of Tumon Tourist Area . if you don't believe me here's the Official Statement :http://www.dfsgalleria.com/Galleria/English/Guam/Guam_DFS_Services.html
taxi fare would drain U unless U desperately need basic medication from K-Mart after midnight . 3 companies operate buses to-and-from major hotels & shopping centers . aprox. half-hour intervals . 1 way is $2 each . all-day pass go for $5 but U gotta stick to buses from the SAME company . to lure tourists as longer as possible, 3 day rent-a-cars R cheaper than daily .'tis NOT San Francisco NOR even London, but U just gotta try out riding atop the open double-decker bus ! in the daytime or among nightlights, from end to end of the Tumon area .
due to the fact that planes fly in thru connection from larger cities on the surrounding continents, you'll probably land & depart during the wee hours after midnight . but as this is a resort island neither the tourists nor the locals working at the airport & hotel seem to mind . look at it this way : U can save the precious daytime for the Beach & Shopping 8) and the good news is, as with Sin City Las Vegas, the airport is a mere 10 minutes from the beach with major hotels !and the better news is the venerable K-Mart is on the way to your right .
Taxi service in Guam.I guess if you use the trunk space in a Taxi, they charge 1$ per piece. Taking a taxi to Duty Free Shop is free. No free taxi service back to your hotel. Take the duty free bus.Taxis can run kind of pricey in Guam. Although it is faster than the bus in most cases, I recommend taking the bus around.
The island is very small but some people rent cars anyway. If you do drive be prepared to sit in traffic for long periods of time and the first three people at a stop light tend to ignore it. Sit for a min before proceeding to ensure that all the traffic has stopped in the other lanes.
