RG Adventure’s fleet consists of cars of different classes and sizes. Choose the one which suits you best and meets your requirements for comfort and the number of passengers. It pays to check rates for all classes the operator offers as sometimes the difference between standard and comfort classes is insignificant, yet if you opt for a higher class, you can travel with much more convenience, legroom, and luggage space just paying extra very little. It is especially true for
vans as often there are good discounts on these vehicles which allow you to enjoy a more comfortable ride.

Pros of Taxi Travel

• Travelling by taxi allows you to avoid crowded bus terminals
  and train stations and keep social distancing which is a good point for those on alert to the pandemic challenges.
• With a taxi, you have complete flexibility – depart when it is more convenient for you, plan enroute stops for rest or meals, and choose the route you want – not necessarily the shortest one. Yet do remember that it is better to discuss all these points with the operator before your trip to
  allow them to calculate the cost which will include all add-ons. Otherwise, the final bill can be an unpleasant surprise.
• Taxis can bring you to destinations that are not served by any other means of public transport. The most remote villages and locations where no buses or trains bring you can be reached by taxi. The good point is to remember that it is sometimes pays to book a round trip to and from such destinations as it can be challenging to find return transport without prior booking.

Cons of Taxi Travel

• Cost is the major drawback of a taxi ride. You will definitely end up paying more for a taxi than for a bus or train journey, but it is quite natural that private service does come at a price, so be ready to shell out.
• Also be ready to pay more for any detours or extra stops not included into the calculation of your fare. Normally the price shown in search results is the net price for the ride from point A to B. To avoid disappointment, remember to mention all your requirements to the trip before you book. Otherwise, your car may be assigned for the next trip, and the driver will not be able to follow your immediate requests.
• Music or just talkative taxi drivers can be a problem – politely insist on switching off the music if you do not feel like listening to it and do not hesitate to tell the driver you are not inclined to keep up the conversation.
• Taxi drivers are notorious for their love to use strange routes or minor roads which – as
  they may think – allow them to beat traffic jams or escape bad roads. If you follow your trip route on Google Maps, it can be quite disturbing to see you deviate from Google’s recommendations.
