About Tonga

Tonga Transport

Travel to Tonga is by air but after you arrive there are many different transport options: Taxi, Bus, Private Car or Boat.

Air – The fastest way to get around Tonga is by air, but be warned, as flights can be rescheduled, delayed or cancelled at short notice due to extreme weather conditions. There are also no flights in Tonga on Sundays.

Boat – Islands nearby to the main island can be reached by boats which depart from the Queen Salote Domestic Wharf. A few passenger ferries operate services between the main island groups. Most island resorts offer boat transfers to their overnight guests and day visitors.

Bus – There is a decent bus service on Tongatapu, elsewhere bus service is a bit limited – buses run infrequently or only of there are enough passengers. In the urban areas of Tongatapu there are bus stops, in other areas, flag down the bus by waving.

Private Car – Driving is on the left hand side and cars can be hired on Tongataou and Vava’u. Car hire can be arranged with private owners on other islands. If you do hire a car, you will need to purchase a Tongan driving licence.

Taxi – Can be recognised by a ‘T’ at the beginning of the licence plate. Always agree on the fare before you get into the taxi and be sure to carry some change with you.
