That is each H don't think you will get that for 2.  I haven't booked yet  but thinking of A2B again for the shared cheap option or Pegasusfor private, I will see how I feel at the time.   


Lynne, we were asked for extra money from the first driver, we just said NO CBF member discount handed £25 and no argument,  you must harden up stand your ground, or just move to the counter of another transfer A2B and say shuttle transfer Calis, they will all take your money, I never pay until I get to Dalaman.  I made the mistake of paying resort hopper online at one time and never again, absolute divs idiots and cretins.

We were with Thomson package on our last visit and waiting on the bus for our fellow travellers was a real pain in the butt compared to having a smartly dressed, polite and friendly individual escort you to a beautiful car which left immediately for Calis.

Oh and they did provide the transport for the Bozalan visit and supported the Promises Auction - as indeed others did of course.

I can only say that we all rely on our own personal experiences, but we booked Pegasus mentioning the CBF and it was all plain sailing, we would use them again unless they let us down, then we would try somewhere else.  It seems to me a lot of people have their own favourite transfer people, and we can all only speak as we find!!

I have used A2B a couple of times when travelling alone.

They would be better named A2H2T2Y2K2F2B !
Total transfer time from Calis to Dalaman last time was nearly three hours !

They did turn up on time no probs - there were already people on the bus when they picked me up who said they had already been on for forty minutes !!

You pays your money and takes your choice ........
The bitterness of a poor service lingers longer than the sweetness of a low price ........

It's funny you should say that Phil - we used A2B last year and there were 5 drop offs on the bus from Dalaman. We were staying at the Mutlu, so when we got to the Dolphin roundabout we assumed we would be first off or thereabouts. No, last - we turned left at the roundabout, went to Orange Park, over the Gunlukbasi  road to the area behind the Citroen dealership, back towards Akarca then finally the Mutlu.

It's not the end of they World, but he could have kicked us out at the Dolphin roundabout and we could have got to the Mutlu quicker (except I doubt I could have done that without answering the call to pop in somewhere en-route  :) )

Not something I've organised personally but the apartment owners have always used Litara (Hisaronu) for our transfers to Calis.
No complaints at all about them and the costs have always been much in line it would seem with other companies.

I also used Pegasus in June for return journey from Dalaman to Hisaronu.  Everything went extremely well.  We were delayed over 3 hours and notified Mutlu by text and had no problem.  Bus was very comfortable and driver was extremely helpful by stopping for something to eat for us as we were starving. Return journey was just as good.  No complaints and would definitely recommend and use again.  Alison

we used Pegasus in June no problems except the return journey for the 3 of us the driver picked us up far too early for the airport but when he arrived it was clear why, there was already another customer on board who had an earlier flight than us so I wasn't to amused at having to spend longer at Dalaman and I did wonder how that would work with the price we were quoted as I was paying £25 for us and also sharing with another who I did notice handed money over but I don't know how much, so I did feel a bit cheated as it wasn't the private transfer I was promised. other than that both drivers were very pleasant and polite.

Let's be very clear. This company, in a lot of instances, is not providing the service it promises. If you have booked a private transfer, that is what you should get.You should not be expected to pay the price for a private transfer when the vehicle is already carrying passengers. The whole idea of a private transfer is self explainatory- you want to get from point A(the airport) to point B (your accomodation) & back again as quickly as possible without dropping off or picking up other passengers. If you wanted that,you would have booked a transfer with Resort Hoppa or A2B. Precisely the reason the reason for a private transfer in the first place. It just leaves a bad taste in the mouth at the beginning/end of your holiday.
