Travelling alone and travelling with a companion are not the same trip. The difference is not the number of tickets — it is how the day is planned.
The vehicle does not double, it changes
A sedan looks adequate for two people until the luggage arrives. Two travellers, two large suitcases and two carry-ons: at that point a Vito or V-Class is not just more comfortable, it is necessary.
Seating matters
Having your companion beside you is different from having them alone in the back row. In larger vehicles seats can be arranged facing each other or side by side. Say so in advance and the car is prepared that way.
Waiting time
Appointments rarely end when you expect. If your companion is waiting outside and the car needs to wait too, booking by the hour is both cheaper and calmer than calling separate transfers.
Two different schedules
Sometimes the companion wants to spend time in the city after dropping you off. If one car is carrying both of you, the plan has to account for that — or a separate return needs arranging. It is a detail that is hard to fix later.
Five things to mention when booking
- How many of you are travelling
- How many pieces of luggage in total
- Whether you need a wider seating arrangement
- Whether the car will need to wait, and roughly how long
- Whether you are both leaving at the same time on the way back
Language
The companion is often the one who handles communication. Knowing in advance which language you will share with the driver beats wrestling with a translation app on the road. Tell us your preferred language when booking.
Small things that help
Water in the car, the climate set before you get in, the door opened for you — individually minor, but they add up at the end of a long day. You do not need to ask; it is already how we work.
