This category is heavily skewed toward private experiences. Of the 18 tour options we compare, 15 (83%) are private tours. This means you will likely be traveling in your own vehicle with your party only, rather than sharing with strangers. The remaining options are typically shared shuttles or basic transfer services.

Duration varies significantly depending on whether you need a quick airport hop or a full-day city exploration. Options range from short transfers to full-day hires, typically lasting between 2.5 and 8 hours, with a median duration of about 6 hours. If you are looking for a quick point-to-point ride, check the filters for shorter time slots.

Additionally, 13 of the 18 options (72%) provide instant confirmation, so you can secure your driver immediately after payment without waiting for manual approval.

Yes, private cars are generally family-friendly and offer more comfort than public transport. While only a small share of options (11%) are specifically tagged as family-friendly, the nature of a private transfer allows you to choose vehicle sizes that fit your luggage and strollers. For larger groups, you may need to select a van option if available in your specific listing.
