Frequent Questions

What type of transfers can I book?

Accommodation address - depending on the type of resorts there may be more than one hotel, apartment complex, chalet or villa with the same name, so we would need the full name and address to avoid confusion.

Mobile phone number - It is very useful if we have to contact you once you have started your trip or during your stay. Please remember to add your country code. Your number will be included in the voucher and will be informed to our suppliers, but we will not give it to any other person or organization, and we will only contact you if necessary.

If you have booked a shuttle transfer, it will generally be a transfer on a coach, minibus or minivan.

Sometimes our suppliers do not have enough passengers to use larger vehicles and may choose to ship a smaller vehicle such as a minivan or sedan.

If you have booked a private transfer, it will usually be a sedan type car or a minivan. For reasons of availability, it is possible that another type of vehicle with a greater capacity will be used, but always only for you.

Which hotels does the shuttle bus stops at?

Our shuttle transfers will only stop at the main hotels in the resort or town that you select. Due to possible local restrictions or road conditions, sometimes a door-to-door transfer may not be possible. When these restrictions occur, the vehicle will stop and pick up or drop off passengers at the closest possible point to the accommodation.

Can I use a shuttle transfer service to take me to the bus station?

Our shuttle transfer services are established only for routes with high volume of passengers. If you cannot find a shuttle option in the desired route when searching in our website, then you need to book a private transfer service.

The system necessarily requires that you enter a flight number and a scheduled departure time to generate the recommended pick-up time. No need further confirmations.

What is the route / schedule for the shuttle transfer service?

Shuttle transfer services are organized with the arrival or departure flights for which they are available and will only stop at the main hotels to drop off or pick up passengers. There is no timetable available as such, as these are not regular transport lines.
