Getting from PMR into town
A private transfer is booked before you fly and the driver waits at arrivals with your name, which is the difference that matters after a long flight: no taxi queue, no fare haggling in a language you do not speak, and a price agreed before you land.
Fares, vehicle classes and pickup rules are the partner's own and appear on their page. We do not repeat them here, because they change by the hour and by the car.
