From BNA airport to Trinidad
Reaching Nashville International
Lyft/Uber from downtown Nashville runs $18-28 (15-20 min, surge pricing 6-9am). Rental car via Nashville/I-40 East is 20 min, $85-120/day for economy at the off-site lot. WeRide shuttle from downtown hotels is flat $20/person one-way, takes 25-30 min, departs hourly 5am-11pm. Public transit (MTA bus 18) is $2.75, runs every 30 min, but takes 50+ min from downtown—only use this if you have zero time pressure. Parking at the airport itself: short-term $2/hour, long-term $12/day, economy $10/day (no free shuttle, 3 min walk). For trips over 5 days, off-site BNA economy lots via Avis/Hertz are $6-8/day but require shuttle time.
Getting from POS into Trinidad
Piarco International Airport (POS) is 26km east of Port of Spain. Option 1: Metered taxi from the official taxi stand outside arrivals costs TT$200-250 (~US$30) to Port of Spain city center — always agree on price before getting in, as many drivers skip the meter for foreigners. Journey is 35-45 minutes in normal traffic, 60+ minutes during rush hour (7-9am, 4-7pm). Option 2: App-based rideshare via InDriver or TaxiApp TT runs TT$150-180 (~US$22) if you can get a signal and connect quickly. Option 3: PTSC public bus runs from the airport into Port of Spain for TT$8 (~US$1.20) but runs infrequently and is not practical with luggage for most travelers. Car rental from the airport (Econo-Car, Thrifty, Kalloos) costs US$50-80/day — recommended if you plan to drive the North Coast Road or visit Caroni Swamp independently.
Planning Nashville to Trinidad
Trinidad is the Caribbean's biggest secret — an island that doesn't care about being a postcard destination, which is exactly why it's worth going. Port of Spain has more in common with a buzzing Latin American capital than a sleepy resort town. The food scene alone justifies the flight: this is where doubles (curried chickpeas in fried bara bread, eaten at 6am roadside) and shark-and-bake at Maracas Beach are legitimate reasons to book a ticket. Don't come expecting manicured beach resorts — come for one of the most culturally dense, gastronomically explosive, musically rich islands in the hemisphere.
Local basics
Best-month weather in Trinidad
January
68–87°F · 5 rain daysDry season peak — sunny, low humidity, genuinely pleasant. Some nights cool enough for a light layer in the hills.
February
68–87°F · 4 rain daysBest weather of the year coincides with Carnival season. Clear skies, breezy nights, no rain complaints.
The destination guide flags July and August and September as the least favorable months.
Two areas to consider
St. Clair / Newtown
mid-rangeThe safest and most walkable neighborhood in Port of Spain, home to embassies, the Queen's Park Savannah, and the best concentration of guesthouses. Ends Guest House and Forty Winks are reliable mid-range picks at US$80-120/night. Ariapita Avenue — locally called 'the Avenue' — is steps away and has the best concentration of restaurants and bars in the city.
Woodbrook
mid-rangeThe eating and drinking heart of Port of Spain, just west of downtown. Ariapita Avenue runs through it and every serious food stop — Chaud Creole, Buzo Osteria, and dozens of roti shops — is here. Short-term apartments run US$70-100/night via Airbnb and put you walking distance from the city's best nightlife without the noise of downtown.
Local planning tip
Buy your flight to Tobago through Caribbean Airlines domestically (not as part of your international ticket) — it's typically TT$400-600 (~US$60-90) roundtrip and the 20-minute flight beats the 2.5-hour fast ferry, which gets choppy and causes serious seasickness. Book directly at caribbean-airlines.com while still in the US. Also: ATMs at POS dispense TTD at the official rate — change no money at airport exchange booths, which take 8-10% commission. And don't rent a car unless you're driving the North Coast Road specifically; Port of Spain traffic is maddening, parking is terrible, and taxis for city use are cheap and fast.
Visa and entry notes for US travelers
US passport holders do not need a visa for Trinidad and Tobago. You get 90 days on arrival, no pre-application required. You need a valid US passport with at least 6 months validity, an onward ticket out of the country, and proof of sufficient funds (rarely checked but carry a card). Immigration is usually quick at POS — the EB line for non-nationals moves faster than it looks. No vaccination requirements for entry as of 2026, though yellow fever vaccination is required if arriving from a yellow fever endemic country (not applicable for direct US flights). Customs allows duty-free import of 1 liter of spirits and 200 cigarettes.
