Why a private car suits older travellers
- The car waits close to each lookout, so walking is kept short.
- No early coach meeting point. We collect you from your door.
- Stop for the bathroom, a coffee or a rest whenever you need.
- Leave early if anyone gets tired. There's no group to wait for.
- Family can travel together: sedans and SUVs for 2 to 4, and Maxi vans for up to 11.
Please tell us about mobility needs when you book. Our cars are standard sedans, SUVs and vans and are not wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
