Booking and payment
Booking takes a couple of minutes and needs no account and no card: pick a car, enter your date, pickup address and phone number, and you get a confirmation. You pay the driver in cash at the end of the ride. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pickup, and the fare is the same at any hour — a 4am departure costs no more than a midday one. Child and booster seats are available free on request; add a note when booking.
Taxi from Shekvetili to Yerevan
For a long-distance journey like Shekvetili to Yerevan, a taxi and a private transfer are essentially the same service: a private car with a driver taking you directly to your destination.
The main difference is how the trip is arranged. With a taxi booked on the spot, the price, vehicle and availability depend on what you can find that day. A pre-booked private transfer gives you a confirmed vehicle, driver and fixed fare before your journey begins.
For longer routes, booking in advance is usually the more convenient option, as you know the total price beforehand and do not need to negotiate or search for a driver on the day of travel.
