Tolle Kommunikation mit einer echten Person! Sie bringen dich ÜBERALL hin, ohne vorgegebene Routen zur Auswahl.

“Eine Planänderung in letzter Minute und Daytrip war unsere letzte Option, also schrieb ich ihnen und erhielt sofort eine Antwort von einer echten Person – beste Situation überhaupt. Wir hatten Daytrip noch nie zuvor genutzt, aber die Bewertungen waren unglaublich, also haben wir es gewagt und gegen 23-24 Uhr einen Fahrer gebucht. Als wir am nächsten Morgen um 7 Uhr aufwachten, hatten sie bereits einen Fahrer für uns gefunden, und der Fahrer hatte uns bereits per SMS kontaktiert! Sehr beeindruckt, und wir werden sie auf jeden Fall wieder nutzen. Wir sind von Dubrovnik, Kroatien, nach Tivat, Montenegro, gefahren.”

Great private transfer service

“This was our first time using Daytrip (from Obidos to Porto with stops at Coimbra and Aveiro) and the overall experience is great. We booked our trip only 2 days in advance and felt a sense of relief after getting the confirmation within an hour. The driver information was clear and we managed to contact the driver on the day of our trip. Our driver Mauricio A. was very friendly and professional, speaking fluent English and we did have a good conversation. We got an upgrade on the vehicle class which had plenty of space for two of us and our bulky luggage. A convenience and hassle free door-to-door transfer which allows you to add stops.”

“We used Daytrip in Portugal - from Obidos to Porto and then Porto to Lisbon. Excellent service - from hotel to hotel. My wife and I have always used train or bus in Europe - but this sure made life easier and convenient. to be able to set your own schedule on a vacation can be priceless.”
