From the old town to the beach
The drive from Kaleiçi to Lara is about 14 km and normally takes around 20 minutes. You leave the walled old town, cross the modern city and head east along the coast to Lara, where large beach hotels line a long sandy shore. As it is a city route, timing depends on traffic: weekday rush hours and busy summer evenings take longer than a late-morning drive.
Only your group travels in the vehicle, and the driver goes straight to your hotel in Lara. There are no shuttle stops and no changes of vehicle, which matters when you have spent a few days walking the old town and simply want to reach the beach without fuss.
Pickup in Kaleiçi
Many small hotels and guesthouses in Kaleiçi sit on narrow, cobbled lanes, and some of these lanes are closed to cars. When you book, send the name and address of your accommodation; if a vehicle cannot reach the door, we agree a pickup point at the nearest accessible street. With heavy suitcases, it helps to know this in advance.
Moving to a beach hotel? Check-out in the old town is usually around midday, and rooms in Lara are typically ready in the afternoon, so a late-morning or early-afternoon pickup works well.
Vehicles for every group
Whether you travel light or with all your holiday luggage, there is no luggage fee.
- Minivan – up to 6 passengers, enough room for suitcases.
- VIP Mercedes-Benz Vito – up to 7 passengers, the comfortable option.
- Mercedes Sprinter – 8 to 16 passengers, for larger groups.
If you have small children, we provide child seats free of charge – just tell us how many and the children's ages. Mention any bulky items, such as a pushchair or extra bags bought during your stay, so the right vehicle is sent.
Booking a one-way or return
A hotel change only needs a one-way transfer. If you are staying in Kaleiçi and want a beach day in Lara or an evening with friends at their hotel, book a return and agree the time for the trip back to the old town before you go.
The price is fixed per vehicle, not per person; see the price table above. There is no night surcharge and no prepayment: you pay in the vehicle, in cash or by card if agreed in advance. Book 24/7 on WhatsApp.
