Airport Transfers in Apia

Getting around Apia

Traveling from Faleolo International Airport (APW) to Apia requires a journey along Upolu's northern coast. Whether you are staying in central Apia, near the waterfront, at a beachfront resort, or in a rural accommodation, several transportation options are available.

Transportation choices include taxis, rental cars, hotel shuttles, shared vans, public buses, and private airport transfers. The journey from the airport to central Apia generally takes between 45 and 60 minutes, depending on traffic, weather, and the location of your accommodation.

Private transfers provide fixed pricing, professional drivers, meet-and-greet service, luggage assistance, and direct transportation to hotels, resorts, guesthouses, ferry terminals, and private homes. Sedans, SUVs, vans, and larger vehicles are available for solo travelers, couples, families, and groups.

Booking an Apia airport transfer in advance is particularly useful for evening arrivals, when public transportation may be limited. A pre-arranged transfer eliminates the need to negotiate fares and provides a comfortable introduction to Samoa after a long international journey.
