"Taxi?"

Some Infrastructure Notes: 


On this trip, there is no itinerary or schedule- there are no deadlines and no RUSHING!
We need to allocate some of our spending money to transportation fees and tips for the drivers.

Transportation:
Okay, so obviously car taxis like the ones in Toronto or London, are not the primary mode of inter-island transportation in the Maldives (except on the main island, where the capital city, Male, is located). The Maldives does offer an inter-island "taxi" transport system of small seaplanes, and helicopters. There are also ferries, which are a cheaper means of travel and the preferable method of transport we would use. Getting a time schedule of the ferry's route (at the airport) is crucial to make sure we can get to and from different locations if we plan to explore without a tour guide.
