Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
Know more about traveling from Sivota - Lefkada
Lefkada is unusual among Greek islands because it is connected to the mainland by a road bridge, so no ferry is needed to arrive by car. A vehicle is the easiest way to reach Sivota and explore the island's scattered beaches. The village waterfront is small and flat for strolling, though the surrounding hills are steep.
Greece is a very safe destination, and Sivota is a quiet, friendly village where crime is rare. You can wander the harbor and enjoy dinner by the water without worry, even after dark. The usual common sense applies, like keeping an eye on valuables. The bay's calm, sheltered waters also make it a reassuring spot for families.
Tipping is appreciated in Greece but not strictly required. At tavernas and restaurants, rounding up the bill or leaving around 5 to 10 percent for good service is common and welcomed. For a quick coffee or drink, leaving small change is fine. Tips are usually left in cash on the table, even if you pay by card.
Sivota's calm bay is made for boat trips, so set out to reach hidden coves and nearby islands like Meganisi. On land, Lefkada's celebrated beaches, including Porto Katsiki and Egremni, are a scenic drive away. Don't miss the Nydri waterfalls and the windsurfing village of Vasiliki, both within easy reach of the village.
Greece uses the euro (EUR). Larger tavernas, hotels and shops in Sivota and across Lefkada accept cards, but smaller fish tavernas, kiosks and family-run spots often prefer cash. ATMs are limited in a small village like Sivota, so it is wise to withdraw euros in Lefkada Town or Nidri beforehand and keep some cash on hand.
The official language is Greek. In tourism-focused Lefkada, English is widely spoken in restaurants, cafes and shops, so visitors rarely have trouble communicating. Menus are often available in English too. Learning a few Greek words is a friendly touch that locals genuinely appreciate.
Seafood is the highlight in Sivota, with waterfront tavernas serving fresh fish, octopus and local catch straight from the bay. You will also find Greek classics like moussaka, grilled meats and village salads. Look out for Lefkada specialties such as the island's prized lentils from Englouvi, and pair your meal with local wine or a glass of ouzo.
Late spring to early autumn, roughly May to September, is the best time to visit Sivota, with warm, sunny days and calm, swimmable seas. July and August are the peak months, when the bay fills with yachts and the village comes alive at night. June and September offer warm water, fewer crowds and a more laid-back atmosphere.
So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
