We needed to get from Valencia to Barcelona with quite a few bags, so we decided to book a private transfer. The driver arrived on time, helped us with the luggage and we went straight to our hotel in Barcelona. It worked really well for us.

We booked a transfer from Lisbon Airport to Faro as we were staying in the Algarve for a few days. It was a long drive but the car was comfortable and the driver was friendly. We just sat back and enjoyed the trip instead of worrying about trains and changing buses.
