We expected a standard 3px car but we got a dirty mini van. The driver spent the whole journey making other booking last on his phone and writing down and reading an itinerary for the day. But much concentration on the driving. Nothing bad happened but fyi. The driver arrived early and was eager for us to leave , no doubt so he could fit more into his schedule.

The Minibus is super small and packed. The Driver stops everything ten minutes and put more people and Bagage in the small Bus. Eveyone is dependend on the Driver, so everyone was afraid to ask, why he is stopping all the time. He doesnt communicate with anyone, does what he wants and throughs everyone out of the bus when we arrived without any advice…

At first we were a bit confused, where we would be picked up, but after a quick call this was clarified. The driver was punctual and came prepared with a sign with my name on it. The car was in good condition and the journey was quick and efficient.
