Can our private transportation stop at the grocery store on the way to our destination?

Stopping at a grocery store during your journey is typically possible during VIP in-country private transport, depending on your driver's schedule. Since our drivers often handle multiple transfers in a day, it's essential to communicate directly with your driver to confirm if a stop is feasible. Please be considerate of your driver's time and try to keep shopping trips brief, allowing you to swiftly resume your journey. When tipping your driver at the end of your journey, we suggest considering any additional stops or special requests made during the trip, in addition to evaluating their overall professionalism and service. This ensures that your tip reflects their efforts appropriately and is a fair token of appreciation for their service.
