Private car and driver hire

Any recommendations?

Lisbon to Porto with stops along the way (already looked up day trip. Any experience with them?)

Is one way private car driver from Porto to Coimbra via Regusa/Pinhao a viable option? (Daytrip was not even giving that as option)

We used mydaytrip to go from Lisbon to Coimbra with stops in Obidos and Nazare. Worked great.

Your response to other poster last October actually gave me the name of that vendor

How was your interaction?
Felt safe?
How was payment handled?
(Credit card to company or cash to driver)?

To close the loop:

Daytrip.Com was on expensive side.
It's a company in Central Europe going through couple of middlemen. They also had issues with stops and advance payments

So we ended up using Fernando Batista of PortugueseChauffeur.com

UK educated (excellent English obviously) running a family business in inter city transfers and private tour. Excellent knowledge of Portugal history and very professional.

Highly recommend him.

(PS: He gives RS forum members small discount - just ask for "keni" discount)
