We strongly recommend to have a transportation plan for your stay with us. The Estate is up a private road and it is not easy to call a local taxi and we do not have uber in our area. We recommend one of the following options.
1. Professional Private Driver and or Airport Shuttle Service:
2. RENT A CAR (RECOMMENDED). We can assist you to rent a car from one of the area providers as needed. If you get your own quote please make sure to ask for the full rate with fees so there are not "surprise" insurances upon arrival at the offices. If you use your credit card car rental policy please bring a printed version of that policy as they will need this to verify.
