Great driver in Egypt
“Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.”

Feb 28, 2025Comfortable and Safe Rides in Mexico
“Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.”

Feb 20, 2025Great way to travel and see some sights on the way
“We did not know what to expect with this trip and booked from Australia. We were initially looking for an easy way to travel from Granada to Malaga. We decided not to waste the opportunity to see something additional on our way. Miguel certainly exceeded our expectations. His English was excellent (unfortunately we speak very little Spanish), and he was very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing about the regions as we passed through and also discussing some of the local ways. Miguel took us to Antequera as planned and ensured we were able to easily get our tickets to the attractions without any sense of rushing us. We were picked up and dropped off punctually and really enjoyed our trip. Hopefully we will return to Spain and we can use this service again sometime.”

Feb 10, 2025Daytrip Budapest to Bucharest
“We reviewed options related to travel from Budapest to Sibiu, Romania and decided to choose MYDayTrip.com. The day trip allowed us to break up the trip and visit sights along the way which we would not have done if we traveled by train or plane. Our driver, Razvan, met us on time at our hotel in Budapest at 8:30 AM. The vehicle was a comfortable VW touring van which had plenty of room for the two of us and our luggage. Razvan is a very competent driver and he negotiated the trip with ease. He also explained a lot about life in Romania which gave us a great primer for our visit. We crossed the Hungarian border and Razvan handled all of our entry into Romania with the border officials. Our first stop was in Timisoara. Timisoara is a very interesting place to visit and will be even more interesting soon as it was chosen as the European Capital of Culture for 2021. There is a lot of renovation ongoing to get ready for 2021. We had lunch at Jack's Bistro a quaint restaurant with an outdoor patio just off of the main city square. Our second stop was the Fortress of Deva, a 13th century fortification which was a dead ringer for one of the castles in the Lord of Rings movie. Admission was very inexpensive and included a funicular ride to the top of the hill where the Fortress provides a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside. We arrived at our hotel Golden Tulip Ana in Sibiu at 6:30 PM. The trip was so much more enjoyable than previous parts of our European journey. It allowed us to avoid late arriving Czech trains with no air conditioning or waiting in airports for delayed departures. Time is definitely worth something and the cost of Mydaytrip.com travel is very competitive. Every part of our journey from Budapest to Sibiu happened on schedule. Having a personable driver who knows the languages and the roads makes everything work very comfortable. I plan to book more trips with Mydaytrip.com and highly recommend the service to couples or families who want a customized journey to Europe without the hassle of other transportation methods. Thanks Razvan for a great trip.”
