To make the most of your trip, try to schedule your transfer outside peak hours, especially in the early morning or late evening, when traffic is lighter. Upon arrival at the airport, head to the designated pickup area where you'll find a mix of authorized transfer services. Keep an eye out for your driver, who will usually hold a sign with your name. Familiarize yourself with local customs, like the need for cash in smaller denominations for tips or minor expenses.
Opting for a pre-booked private transfer is wise for this route.
