Choosing the right vehicle

A Private Taxi suits smaller parties: there are options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, and the larger one is the better choice if you travel with several suitcases. Groups can book a Private Minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, so families, business teams, sports clubs and tour groups can all travel together in one vehicle. Pick the size by the number of people and the amount of luggage rather than by headcount alone.
