Point to point transfers such as hotel to same city/metro convention center/shopping center etc. and return $15 first person $5 per additional person up to 4 people in same vehicle.

Long distance transfers - Our fees are based on number of passengers, number of vehicles and number of stops primarily. A simple car for up to 4 people directly from one main city to another under 3 hours would be same as above. From a city to a minor town/village would be more. The more complex to arrange the more the fee to compensate the additional time and effort. 

Tours

Tour fees are based on the level of complexity and effort (time) that it will take to arrange. Booking a family of four on a established tour will be much less than arranging a guide (s) for a group of 10 on a bespoke itinerary. Roughly the fees can be from $25 to $295.00

Again this is another service that varies widely based on the complexity. Simple point to point intercity tickets would be $20 - $35 first traveller $10 - $20 per additional traveller on the same itinerary. Multi-city, multi-stop, rail passes, special classes and services such as sleeping accommodations can incur additional fees.
