Walk out through the cruise port terminal, then through the port parking lot to just past the port entry gate, and the GDT operator was waiting there with several golf carts to chose from. A quick orientation of the cart operation, review of the island map and we were on our way. Our cart was reliable; I did see someone else receiving roadside assistance for their dead cart!
Returning the cart was also incredibly easy, just drive it back to the port gate. The ship's excursions cost almost twice what GDT charged; the only advantage the excursion has is that those golf carts are allowed into the port parking lot rather than having to wait just outside the gate. I highly recommend GDT for those able to walk the extra 100 yards.

Grand Turk GDT - 4 seater. We got off our ship and walked through the cruise port over to the parking lot and then walked through the gate to get out. GDT was immediately on our left outside the gate. We checked in with the fellow there and were off. The cart moved at a good pace and had no problems. These are gas powered carts so the guy said to put $10 into the tank (located under the front seat) before returning the cart. Be aware, the gas station we stopped at (Central gas) has a minimum $20 purchase for credit cards so make sure to bring cash so you don't have to overpay. The gas tank itself you could probably cross the island 4 -5 times from cruise port to lighthouse without running out of gas. The map of the island is actually stuck to the front window for convenience, however, the streets on the map and the actual streets are poorly marked so pay attention to land marks and lakes to get your bearings. Also - This island is a drive on the left place (like England). When we got back to port to drop off, the attendant was off putting carts into storage, so one of the other rental guys say just leave the keys and head to the ship. We'd use this group again.

This is the best way to see and experience Turks and Caicos. It’s so easy using a golf cart to get around. You’re on your schedule and doing what you want to do. They will give you a map with all the major points of interest. It’s easy to navigate. If you get the chance you can stop at the local gas station or mini mart to pick up inexpensive drinks and snacks.
I have this 4 stars vs 5 because the brakes weren’t the best and the older guy checking us in and explaining stuff was REALLY rude.

Four of us rented a gasoline 6 passenger golf cart for $110, plus $10 for gas, for the day after U.S. Thanksgiving. Reason for the low score- very difficult to operate the parking brake (safety issue). While reminding ourselves to drive on the left side of the roads, we drove around the 7 mile by 1 mile island of Grand Turk. We visited many residential areas, and many homes seemed damaged, and many appeared to be uninhabited. I imagine they are hit by repeated hurricanes. We enjoyed the historical signs by the lighthouse at the northeast end of the island, and the history museum ($5) in the downtown area of Cockburn. With a local recommendation, we ate lunch at the Fisherman's Wife Restaurant (OK). The gentleman who rented us the vehicle seemed like a good guy, and explained aspects of the cart. But, when we had trouble with the parking brake- he pushed the foot brake with his hand. If this was necessary- ow were we to operate the cart on our own? Safety issue.

The walk from the cruise ship to Drive GDT was quick - took about 5-6 minutes to get there. We showed a man at the exit gates our reservation and he misguided us; told us to wait at a spot for him to return. After a few minutes we decided to keep on walking down the road and came upon Drive GDT sign and Marron. Can't trust anyone; look for signs. The cart was clean and in good condition when we started out. We too were frustrated when told to return it with a full tank. There is no gauge either to make certain it is full when you start out. The map he gave us highlighted spots but there are no street signs or directive signs on it. We got lost trying to get to the lighthouse and had to ask several others for help. BTW - the lighthouse was not anything to get excited about!! Old and you can't go into it; they want you to pay $3 per person to go to a tourist bar there or to use the restroom. Big disappointment for us. Other problem, when climbing uphill roads to get to the lighthouse the golf cart shifted down in gears and never would speed up again so it was a longer slow drive back to port. We had also planned to stop at the Ridge restaurant recommended by other trip advisor folks on the way back but it was pouring rain on us and we got soaked. All we wanted to do was get back to the ship after driving around this small sad old storm damaged island. The water was nice and I'm sure the beach was nice? We basically chose the wrong excursion for us at Grand Turk. (Note to Marron: Never could find a gas pump on the way back; MAP handed out should indicate at least two gas pump stations for fill ups!!)

Hello!!! thanks for choosing DriveGDT, as indicated in our pickup details we are located right outside the cruise terminal main gate, our sign is highly visible and displayed.
We rent the golf carts either full or half-full of gas so we ask all of our customers when returning the cart please (replace ONLY the fuel used) most cases it’s only $5.
The maps that we provide is provided to us by the Turks and Caicos Islands Tourist Board, it’s not an official map from DriveGDT
I’m sorry that you had a bit of a rough start, but thank you for choosing DriveGDT

This will be an odd review. I am giving GDT a 5!! Our cruise itinerary was taking us to Turks/Caicos. I reviewed a few videos on YouTube and was quite taken with the one posted for GDT. The one standout feature was their cancellation policy. I booked a 4 seater for 4 adults. The day BEFORE we were suppose to dock, the captain tells us that due to high winds we were bypassing Turks and heading to Amber Cove. This was at 3:30P. The best I had in communication was sending an eMail via the ships WiFi and hoping it got there if for nothing else than to say we weren't coming. I got an IMMEDIATE response from Viator/Trip Advisor saying my rental was cancelled and I would be getting a full refund!!! Now this to me was unheard of. I knew I was beyond the cancellation policy stated. So this review is odd in that I never go to use their carts! So this is a 5 for the customer service, response and appreciation for the nature of weather! Will definitely use them when I return to Turks!!

This is a great way to explore the island. You have to walk just outside the terminal (just north of the port) to pick up the golf carts. It is an easy, flat, 5 minute walk, and very worth it for a better deal than renting carts on the port or through the cruise line. All of the beaches on the west side of the island are simply beautiful. We spent much of the afternoon at Governor’s beach, where they have lounge chairs/umbrellas available to rent ($25 for two chairs and umbrella and like everything else, that is negotiable). We brought snorkels with us and the snorkeling at this beach was better than most snorkel excursions that we would pay a lot to do and so simple to just go out there and snorkel from the beach.
Highly recommend governor’s beach.

No signs or directions to get there. So shady but I guessing it’s cause they don’t operate for the cruise lines. The cart would shake and pull if I pushed down on gas pedal. Felt very unsafe. Wasn’t very pleasant. I appreciate the cheaper price but having experienced it… I’d pay extra for a rental right at the port that is in safe good running condition and a lot nicer looking.

We recently rented a golf cart through this vendor for our Carnival Cruise stop at Grand Turk. I highly recommend renting a golf cart, as the island is only 7 miles and not busy at all. My boyfriend and I were able to go from one end of the island to the other several times with the golf cart. You do have to walk outside of the cruise port gate, but it is such an easy process and the crew was waiting with the golf cart when we were off. I do believe the golf carts in the port are a bit cheaper (and a little faster) BUT if you rent those, you have to stop to fill up on gas on the way back AND had to wait in line to rent. With this company, you were able to head outside of the gate as soon as you got off the ship, sign some paper work and hit the road. Gas was included, so we were able to enjoy the day stress free. When we were ready to get back on the ship, we dropped the cart off at the pick up location, super easy. If we go back I will definitely use this service again.....DO IT!

PROS: The golf cart was road worthy. Took it all over the Island. Had booked prior and they had all my inform. Check in took less than 5 minutes and on my way. .
CONS: The pick up was outside the main gate, about a 400 yard walk. Security will NOT allow the golf cart inside making it closer to the ship dock. Note a $10 fill up fee or you can go to the gas station and fill up. Did not experience the gas station. Just gave $10 and on my way. REMEMBER they drive on the left side of the road.
All in all Great Experience. I would do it again.

Can we drive this on the main roads? Thx in advance
Written March 2, 2022
Yes, you can drive on any road. Be careful as some roads are one way, but there is plenty of signage. The two main roads have a little bit of traffic, but just stay to the far side of the road and they will pass you when they have a chance. We felt very and comfortable the entire drive.
