Arrive · Tumon
Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport (GUM)
GUM to Tumon: one pre-booked hotel shuttle or a taxi, 10–20 minutes — the risk is a late Asian arrival with the desk unaware, not the distance.

Rules in force · 9Bags go from the car to the hotel door
- Oceania ↗Oceania's island states guard their farms and reefs at the border: tick 'yes' on the arrival card for any food, plant, animal product, soil or used outdoor gear, and let the officer decide.
- Oceania ↗Across the tropical South Pacific, cyclones are possible from November to April: choose insurance that covers weather delays and keep one spare night before a long-haul departure.
- Micronesia ↗Micronesia runs on a handful of weekly flights, so one cancellation can cost several days: build slack into every connection between islands.
- Guam ↗US entry rules apply: visitors need a US visa, ESTA under the US Visa Waiver Program, or eligibility for the Guam–CNMI Visa Waiver Program. Check US Customs and Border Protection for your passport; the Guam–CNMI waiver does not allow onward travel to the rest of the US.
- Guam ↗Guam is outside the US customs territory: complete the Guam customs declaration on arrival and declare food, plants and animal products.
- Guam ↗Drive on the right, as in the mainland US; a valid foreign licence is accepted for short visits.
- Tumon and Hagåtña ↗Buses are infrequent and a hire car or a tour is the practical way to the south; book it for the dry months if you can.
- Tumon ↗Bags go from the car to the hotel door; the strip is flat but hot and the crossings are far apart.
- Tumon ↗Plan the south and Hagåtña as one hire-car day: the strip has taxis but the sights beyond it do not.

Zero-brain vs precision
- Daytime default
- Hotel shuttle or taxi arranged in advance, straight to the door.
- Precision
- Many arrivals from Asia land at night or before dawn; taxi supply at the rank after the last arrival is not printed (field-verify). Confirm the pickup with your flight number.
- Late-night threshold
- 22:00

If it breaks
- Message the hotel your flight number and ask for a shuttle or a late-arrival plan; do not count on the taxi rank after the last arrival.
- Ask for the fare or check the meter before you set off.
- If no ride is available, sleep near the airport: do not walk the road at night.
