our driver Carla really knew their stuff and the driver waiting with my name on a sign was the highlight, and blew our Cape Town one out of the water, tbh

our driver Luca couldnt do enough for us and help with the bags at both ends was the highlight. First thing in the morning so it wasnt too busy. Great if youre not super fit, and clean car, free water, and over easter break. Would book again no question.

our driver Diego was nice enough, but cold water and phone chargers in the car felt a bit rushed honestly, and not as good as the one we did in Crete tbh.
