Daytrip is a private car service platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
Daytrip offers private door-to-door transfers with optional sightseeing stops, hourly driver hire, and curated day trips — all with local English-speaking drivers and operating across 130+ countries.
For private trips, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24 hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15 minutes before departure.
Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.

So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
Access to Crane Beach can be challenging. The Crane Resort offers a glass-walled elevator for guests (with a fee redeemable at the bar or restaurant), but the public access point involves a walk along an uneven coastal path. The beach itself is flat once you arrive, but the approach is not suitable for wheelchairs or strollers without assistance.
The ocean at Crane Beach is best suited for confident swimmers. The beach faces the Atlantic, and there can be strong surf, undercurrents, and occasional riptides. It is an excellent spot for boogie boarding and wave riding. Families with young children may prefer calmer beaches on the island's southern or western coast.
Barbados uses the Barbadian dollar (BBD), which is pegged to the US dollar at a fixed rate of 2 BBD to 1 USD. US dollars are widely accepted across the island. Most hotels, restaurants, and shops also accept major credit cards, though having some local cash is handy for smaller vendors and beach stands.
December through April is peak season, offering the driest weather and most reliable sunshine. This is also the most popular and expensive time to visit. If you prefer fewer crowds and lower prices, the shoulder months of May, June, and November are a good alternative, though you may catch occasional tropical showers.
English is the official language of Barbados and is spoken by everyone on the island. Locals also speak Bajan Creole (known as Bajan), an English-based dialect with African influences. You will have no language barriers as a visitor, and Bajans are well known for being warm and welcoming to guests.
Bottom Bay Beach is a short drive away and offers a more secluded setting with dramatic cliffs and a sheltered arc of sand. Sam Lord's Castle and the Foursquare Rum Distillery are also nearby and worth a stop. The Barbados Concorde Experience is conveniently located close to the airport, which is just 15 minutes from Crane Beach.
Tipping is customary in Barbados. A 10% service charge is often added to restaurant bills, but it is common practice to leave an additional tip of 10 to 15% for good service. Tipping taxi drivers and hotel staff is also appreciated, though not obligatory.
Look for a fish cutter (a flying fish sandwich on a salt bread roll) at Cutters Deli, located just up the road from the beach. Macaroni pie, cou-cou, and flying fish (the national dish), and fresh rum punch are staples of Bajan cuisine well worth sampling during your visit.
