Sharing transfer or private transfer?
With a sharing transfer you travel together with other guests, which keeps the price per person lower. It suits solo travellers, couples and small groups who are happy to share.
With a private transfer the vehicle is arranged for your own group. It costs more, and suits families and groups who want to travel on their own. The tour page explains exactly how each option is priced, so check it before you choose.
What affects the price
- The transfer type: sharing or private.
- The date: prices and availability can change by day, so choose your date on the tour page.
- The options you pick on the tour page.
- How the option is priced: some options are priced per person and others per group. The tour page shows which.
Before you book
- The cooler months, roughly November to March, are the most comfortable for the desert. In summer, evening departures are more comfortable than daytime ones.
- Wear light, comfortable clothes and closed shoes, and bring sun protection and a light layer for the evening.
- Add your pick-up details during booking, and check the cancellation terms on the tour page.
