    I am trying to figure out if I want to do the 55 dollar private or the 17 dollar shared ride.

    Is Best Day good? The USA transfer seems nice unless they are like secretly the same company.

    Any thoughts? Many thanks :aktion069:

    Steve has links for (Brant) USA. nothing can compare to $55 and you are there ASAP vs others and it can be as much as 1 hour later.

    We have used Funjet (shared bus) Expedia (shared van) and Brant (private) we will never choose anyone other then Brant. even if it was $100 round trip. It's worth it. They are waiting, no question who you should leave with, sign in hand. Fast and very friendly talkative both to and from.

    Definitely not the same company.

    USA Transfers is run by a Canadian expat (Brant), Best Day is a big Mexican company.

    Most of the regulars here swear by USA Transfers, I honestly cant remember a bad review. For many, getting to the hotel an hour or so earlier and leaving an hour later is well worth the $55.

    I agree 100%. We boooked through Expedia and their cost was $48. We cancelled that (no charges) and booked USA for $55. For $7 we will have a nice driver to talk to and have at least three more hours of vacation.

    I do not know what is worse, waiting, endlessly, to get to the resort or having to leave 4 hours before the flight departs. (jumping into a fully loaded van to go to the airport is not my idea of leaving on a high note.)

    I decided to be cheap and book Best Day to get to the resort.

    I read a few more reviews and they didn't seem too bad to go to the resort (it looked like they sucked when it came to taking them back to the airport) and we land at 11am so we don't mind taking our time getting there.

    For getting back to the airport we felt taking a cab should be fine and since we are both Spanish the cabbie shouldn't treat us like crap. (It makes sense in my mind)

    I cant freaking wait to be there I am thinking of buying a garter belt for either lingerie or white night :mnm:

    Sorry to hijack your post... we just have a question about the USA Transfers. So if we want to do the round trip for $55 and pay the driver when they pick us up at the airport, do they just automatically pick us up from the resort and take us back to airport? How exactly does that work?
    Thanks!
