Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on the size of your group and the amount of luggage you carry:

• Private Minibus 8 Seats works well for larger families or friends travelling with extra luggage.
• Private Minibus 16 Seats and 24 Seats suit wedding parties, sports teams and business groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats cover large delegations, tour groups and event guests who want to arrive together.
