Questions & Answers
How do I indicate pick-up location and time?
During the reservation process, the pick-up point and schedule are requested.
My accommodation is not in the city center, can you still pick me up?
Yes, as it is a private service.
Why do departures after 11:30 have an extra charge of 255,000 CLP?
Private transfer services made after 11:30 a.m. have an extra cost of 255,000 CLP per vehicle because due to the timetable established at the border crossing, vehicles traveling in this time slot do not reach Chile the same day and spend one night in Argentina. If your departure time is between 11:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. you must add the extra “DEPARTURE FROM 11:30 a.m.” to your reservation, otherwise it will not be possible to confirm your reservation.
