Story from one of our customers….
I was looking forward to spend the maximum time exploring the island of Santorini during my trip. But since it was my first internal trip, I was nervous about the transports. The hotel which I booked was located at a long distance from the Santorini airport. Moreover, it was located on a little secluded area where public transports weren’t available.
That’s why I had to rely on private Santorini airport transfer. But since it was my first time booking the car online much before my flight landed in Santorini, I did a lot of research work. And here, I will share how I did my research which led me to the best transport agency in Santorini.
Experience Matters a Lot
For me, experience of a travel company matters a lot. A travel or transport agency should be experienced enough to understand the various requirements of their clients and can must have the ability to live up to their expectations. That’s why we filtered the transport company options based on how much experience they have gained in the market.
Fleet Collection And Vehicle Conditions
The next on which I focused was going through the various collection of cars the companies have. Usually, four wheelers sedans are the most common car type that tourists choose for Santorini airport transfer. But since I was going on a vacation with my friends, we needed a bigger car. So, we looked through the fleet of cars the company had and shortlisted the ones providing larger vehicles.
Different Transport Package Options
As I was scrolling down the pages of the transport agencies still present on my list, I came across some of the transport firms which were offering different airport transfer options. They had different packages for airport transfers like self-driven car rental, chauffeur driven airport transfer, emergency airport transfer, and others. With the variations in the packages, the prices also changed which allowed me to choose the most affordable option.
Availability of Shared Transfer Facility
As I was travelling alone, I was a bit scared about hiring a private Santorini airport transfer. That’s why I listed only those firms who were offering shared airport transfer deals. This way I would be sharing the car with other travellers which somehow lessened my fears.
Skills and Expertise of the Drivers
Lastly, I checked the skills of the drivers that the airport transfer agency had. I made sure to choose a firm with drivers having updated driving license as I love my safety and didn’t want to get caught into anything related to law in an unknown country. That’s why I finally chose a firm who had licensed drivers only.
Conclusion
To be very frank, choosing the best company for airport transfer Santorini was not an easy task. But I paid proper attention to the details and put efforts in shortlisting the firms so that I wouldn’t end up with a wrong transport company in the Greek island.
