What should a group of 8 expect to pay for transportation from Terres Basses to Grand Case for dinner? Is there a standard cost for such services? Any recommendations? We are renting cars but would love the option of having a safe driver for passage to and from dinner. In addition please share your favorite restaurants for dinner. Thank you!

My suggestion would be to contact TTOL sponsor Wilfred Brooks and ask him to give you a quote.

Thank you. I did contact him and he seemed very professional and we would be happy to use him. His estimate was $144 plus tip. It is a bit out of our price range especially if we want to use transportation 4-5 times. We still may call him as he is so highly recommended with amazing reviews on TTOL.

If that is round trip and he basically has to wait for you I think that’s. Pretty good price.

If you think that you might want to use him several times, I would tell him that, and he may be willing to give you some kind of a package deal. Couldn't hurt to ask.

Yes that is a good point. If we can schedule our trips out it may be worth approaching him for a package cost. Thanks for your input.

That sounds a little high to me. It's a healthy drive for sure, but I'm thinking more like $120 USD roundtrip. Of course, going at night and if they wait for you then that could contribute to a higher price. I definitely agree with Carols's advice. If you have other trips in mind and don't want to drive see if you can package everything into one combo price. I just did this exact thing in Mallorca, Spain with a company called TaxiTour Mallorca and excursions we took on six different days were rolled into one package price of 330 euros. It was money well spent in my opinion.
