Why people love Daytrip
Excellent service for transfers in Thailand
“I was unsure about this company but a few good reviews on Trip Advisor made me take the chance. I am so happy that we did. We needed a ride from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai. Our driver Saksun was an excellent driver - it's not a long distance to drive (by Texas standards!) but the road is challenging and there are a lot of places where improvements to the road are being made. It took around 3 hours with a stop at a place with very clean bathrooms, very interesting hot springs and a place to get a snack and cold drinks. Saksun had a vehicle that was fantastic for this type of drive - a very comfortable ride indeed and was obviously well maintained and very clean. I highly recommend this company. I used to post on trip advisor as "lakekariba" but got out of the habit of doing so. This company was so easy to use and the result was so enjoyable that I felt that the company Daytrip and the driver Saksun had earned our trust and a glowing review.

Dec 4, 2024Traveling Solo Through Costa Rica
“I'm traveling in Costa Rica and was looking for transportation from Tamarindo to La Fortuna. I found mydaytrip.com and saw all of the positive reviews so I decided to take a chance. I'm so glad I did. My driver Danny was great. He showed me different sites along the way and even stopped so I could take pictures. As a solo traveler, he made sure I was comfortable and ensured I didn't need anything. Booking through mydaytrip.com actually cost less than trying to book with group transportation. I highly recommend Danny and mydaytrip.com for all of your travel needs in Costa Rica.”
