  • We used VTC SAMBA for our transfer between the airport and our accommodation in the west of the island, and we are completely satisfied. […] Value for money is excellent and the team’s reliability during the transfer is remarkable. […] A big thank you to Serane for the warm welcome, the availability and the kindness!

What we’ll ask you on the phone

The call takes two minutes. Have this ready:

  1. where you’re leaving from and where you’re going;
  2. the date and time, and your flight number if it’s the airport;
  3. how many passengers and suitcases;
  4. your name and a number where we can reach you.

We tell you the fare, and it’s booked.

Questions we often get

How is this different from a taxi?

A private hire driver (VTC in France) can’t pick people up in the street: you always book in advance, it’s the law. In return, the fare is fixed when you book. No meter running in traffic.

My flight lands in the middle of the night. Will you be there?

Yes, we drive 24/7, by booking. Between 20:00 and 6:00 the night rate applies: the calculator at the top of the page includes it as soon as you change the time.

There are 6 of us with suitcases. Will we fit?

Yes, in the Renault Trafic: up to 8 passengers with their luggage. Choose “Van” in the calculator.

Is the fare shown here final?

It’s calculated with our rates and rounded to the euro. We confirm it on the phone and it won’t change after that. It only changes if the trip does: an extra stop, an address up in the hills, a detour you ask for.

Do you go to Cilaos, Salazie, the volcano?

Yes, the whole island, cirques and volcano included. The fare is worked out the same way: distance and time. For a full day with several stops, we’ll give you a price on the phone.

Can I book by message?

Yes, the same number answers on WhatsApp: +262 692 81 60 63. Messages are free from abroad. For an early-morning pick-up, book the day before.

Book in two minutes.
