They put us in a van that was not for 6 people, we were all cramped like a sardine can! They do not take into account the size of the luggage.

Van was late. Also stopped 4 times to drop off locals. The van did take the express way, but still took 4 hours for the journey because of all stops. This meant that upon.arrival we had to rush to get our boat ticket booked No help whatsoever
