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.

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.
Know more about traveling from Loreto
Loreto's small town center, with its plaza, mission and seafront malecon, is mostly flat and pleasant to explore on foot. Some streets are cobbled or uneven, which can be a little bumpy for strollers and wheelchairs. The main attractions, beaches and islands are best reached by car or boat, and boat boarding for tours can be tricky for those with mobility needs.
Loreto is widely considered one of the safest, most relaxed towns in Mexico, with friendly locals and a laid-back pace. Baja California Sur generally feels calm and welcoming. As anywhere, use normal common sense, keep valuables secure and choose reputable tour operators for water activities. Take care with sun, currents and wildlife at the beach. Families and solo travelers tend to feel very comfortable here.
Tipping is customary and important in Mexico. In restaurants, leaving around 10 to 15 percent for good service is standard. Tips for guides, boat crews, drivers and hotel staff are appreciated and often form part of their income. Carrying small peso notes makes tipping easy, especially on the many tours, from whale watching to snorkeling, that Loreto is known for.
Loreto is a haven for nature and history lovers. Take a boat trip into Loreto Bay National Marine Park to snorkel, kayak or spot whales, dolphins and sea lions around islands like Coronado. Visit the historic Mission of Our Lady of Loreto, the oldest in the Californias, and the inland San Javier Mission. Stroll the malecon and enjoy spectacular sunsets.
Mexico uses the Mexican peso (MXN). In Loreto, many hotels, restaurants and tour operators accept cards, and US dollars are sometimes taken, though usually at a poor rate. Cash in pesos is best for taxis, small eateries, markets and tips. ATMs are available in town, so it is easy to withdraw pesos for day-to-day spending during your visit.
The official language is Spanish. In Loreto, a welcoming town used to visitors, many people in hotels, restaurants and tour businesses speak English, especially given the community of North American visitors and residents. Learning a few Spanish phrases is appreciated and helps you connect with the famously friendly locals as you explore the town.
As a coastal Baja town, Loreto is all about fresh seafood. Try fish and shrimp tacos, ceviche and the famous chocolate clams, often grilled. Sample classic Mexican dishes like enchiladas and machaca, a dried beef specialty, plus handmade tortillas and salsas. Pair your meal with a cold local beer or a margarita while watching the sun set over the sea.
The cooler, drier months from roughly November to April are the most popular, with pleasant weather and calm seas. Blue and gray whales visit between about January and March, prime whale watching season. May and October are local favorites for warm water and fewer crowds. Summers are hot, and the wider region can see storms later in the year, so plan accordingly.

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.
