How to get to Kiribati and around

The majority of the passports do not require a visa for Kiribati making it a relatively easy country to visit. You will have to fill in a landing card when you arrive, and complete customs and agricultural quarantine questionnaires. You can find the visa requirements via the Emirates website which uses IATA information.

Renting a car or scooter is the best way to get around Kiribati. There is limited public transportation, and a car makes more sense than a scooter if there are at least two of you. Because of the heat and the 80+ speed bumps on Tarawa, it is also more practical. If you want to rent a car, you should inquire at the hotel where you are staying. You can probably rent a car from them. There's no need to sign contracts or show your driver's license; you're basically borrowing someone's car, and everything is very informal. Because the speed limit is only 40 km/h, driving Tarawa from beginning to end takes about an hour.
