We have spent time searching the internet for the best companies providing airport transfer by coach, taxis, shuttle, mini bus services and below are the three which we feel offer the most competitive and cheap prices and all round professional service.
Resort Hoppa:
Resort Hoppa offer very competitive private transfers which can accommodate extremely large groups; even up to 55 people on a coach. Resort Hoppa rates are based on the size of vehicle used. For example they will charge the same rate if your group is 2 or 4 persons as the car used to accommodate you will be the same vehicle.
They definitely represent the cheapest options if you are travelling in a suitably sized group; so check their booking engine to see if your party could save money. You might find them less competitive if you are travelling as a couple.
Holiday Taxis:
Holiday taxis offer a similar service to Resort Hoppa, their prices are based on the type of vehicle which is used. Again it depends on the size of your group as to how much money you may save; take a look at their booking system to see how you fare. They also offer a premier service for any one who wishes to travel in luxury. Holiday Taxis are also taking a ‘greener’ stance regarding vehicle emissions; this allows you to off set your carbon footprint for a small fee.
San Sebastian first started out as a fishing village until in 1845 Queen Isabella II arrived at the city looking for a skin remedy for a complaint that the sea had given her. The Queen soon made the city popular with the wealthy people as a holiday retreat.
