Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you pick depends mainly on how many people and how much luggage you are travelling with:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): a good fit for solo travellers, couples, small families and colleagues travelling together.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: suits larger families or friends who want to travel in one vehicle with extra luggage space.
• Private Minibus 16 to 64 Seats: available in steps of 8 seats (16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64), these cover tour groups, conference delegations, school trips and sports teams arriving together.

If your group sits close to a size limit, choosing the next size up gives everyone more comfort and room for bags.
